Morgan Hall, Kappa Delta Pi, honorary education fraternity, Women's Athletic Association, annual staff and Lutheran Student Fellowship.

The major portion of her experience in working on a yearbook came last year when she took an avid interest in saving the Peruvian. She started out the year in the position of copy editor and gradually worked into other areas where help was lacking.

Her main concerns this year are to sell more yearbooks and to recruit staff members.

About 200 yearbooks have been sold, but 300 more need to be purchased by students and faculty if there is to be a yearbook. The campaign to sell yearbooks will begin soon.

New editors of student publications are: Nancy Stoll, Peruvian and John Thomas, Pedagogian.

PROCLAMATION

··The staff of the Peru State College Peda· gogian and the members of the Student Governing Association do hereby jointly proclaim.the 1971-72 academic year to be one of activity and relentless pursuit of progress for the stu· dents of The Campus of a Thousand Oaks. The aforementioned bodies do hereby publicaly de· :vote themselves to the creation of a Student Governing Association of activity and involve· ment.

It will be the function of this body to ex· press and act upon the will of the student electorate. It is needless to say that this task will become an idealogical yet fruitless endeavor unless the students express a direction for leadership. Therefore, the Student Governing Association and the Pedagogian do hereby enlist the services of concerned individuals and ask that they make known their wants and concerns.

The Peru Pedagogian affords an opportunity of expression without censorship for the stu· dant body. Similarly, the Student Governing Association meetings in the Fine Arts Audi_. torium allow the students to make their opin· ions known to the student leaders. We hereby make a public plea that all students make use of these means of expression, so as to present their leaders with a direction toward which they might strive.·

This year's Student Governing Association pledges action if given an opportunity and direction. The members of the Student Governing Association are leaders, not mind read· ers. Therefore, join hands with YOUR Pedagogian staff and YOUR Student Governing Association members in making-the 1971-72 academic year a truly profitable one for all at Peru State College.

Selective Service Changes Deferments

Dr. Curtis Tarr, National Director of the Selective Service System, explained expected policy changes on Undergraduate Student deferments in a press release from the Selective Service System. College students who were enrolled full-time in the 1970-71 academic year will· be eligible for student deferments for 197172 if they continue satisfactory progress in school. Not qualifying for student deferments will be those young men ·who entered school for the first time this summer and those who enrolled as freshmen this fall. These changes are dependent on the passing of the Selective Service bill by Congress. The House has completed action on the bill and final Senate action is expected this month.

Dr. Tarr has requested that the processing of Form 109, which gives student deferments to freshmen, be temporarily suspended until there is further action on the bill. The Resgistrar's Office at Peru State has announced it will comply with this .request. Incoming Freshmen and students are advised by Dr. Tarr not to file for a student deferment since if the bill is passed the deferment will be resclinded and if the bill isn't passed, they have no need of it and have only increased their liability to the age of 35. Should Congress change legislation and permit deferments, such applications will not be jepordized by the delay of submission.

According to Dr. Tarr, few incoming freshmen students are lifely to be inducted in the near future because of the student deferement phaseout. Out of the 1,034,000 freshmen_

estimated by the Office of Education, approximately 25,000 men stand a strong chance of being drafted. If a student is called in the middle of a semester, he will be allowed to postpone hs induction until the end of that semester, or if in his last academic year, until after graduation.

If the bill fails to pass the President is empowered to call up those men presently holding deferments, but Selective Service officials state that this is unlikely .to happen. Young men who have recently lost or dropped deferments would most likely be called up.

The Desire to Represent Effectively by the SGA

The Peru State Student Government Association is an organization of great importance to every student enrolled in this college. It entails responsibility for every student, as well as opportunities to voice opinions and work for progress on this campus.

These representatives are, in no way, able to completely and effectively represent each individual. It is the responsibility of each student to voice her opinion and work through SGA to improve Peru State College. SGA meetings are held every Tuesday at 6:00 p.m. in the Fine Art's Auditorium. All students are welcome and urged to participate. ·

Flag, Fumble Foil Bobcats' Foray 14-1

By Gary Grady

The weather was there were many fans in the stands and the popcorn was 'being popped when the Peru State Bobcats took the field in Nebraska City, for the third · annual Applejack Bowl game' between Peru and Tarkio.

· After being defeated last week by Dakota State-at Madison the Bobcats were trying for their first win of the year, but were turned back by the Owls from Tarkio by the score of 14-12.

Peru scored late in tile third quarter on a 49 Y!ird run by Jim Desbien o!)].y to have it called back by a clipping penalty. Peru saw another scoring threat nullified when the football was funbled on the Tarkio two yard line. ·

The Bobcafs scored first and appeared on their way to their first victory of the year. Peru's touchdown came with9:33left in the first quarter on a short plunge over the goaline by freshman Avery Wallace. Tarkio came back to tie the ball game with only 2:33 remaining in the first half on a seven yard pass play·from Woodin to Wageman. Roccio's try for the extra point was good and Tarkio went into the dressing room at half time with a shaky one point lead.

Tarkio scored first in the second half when defensive back Bobino picked off a Peru aerial and ran 60 yards for the touchdown. Again the try for the extra point was good and Tarkio was ahead by the score of 14-6.

Peru scored its final touchdown in the last quarter on a 75yard drive. During this drive quarterback Tom Froehlich was taken out of the game with a knee injury. Terry Criger, who had quarterbacked the first half, crune back into the game and connected with Randy Den on a 10 yard scoring strike. The try for two extra points was missed and the score was 14-12 in favor of the Owls from Tarkio. Late in Conthmed oo page 3

As quickly as the Normalite had disappeared it reappeared in ·1906. Another milestone was reached on October 11, 1915, when the campus newspaper became a weekly. Up to this tinte it had been a monthly with some issues representing two months.

·On October 5, 1921, twentynine years after the initial appearance of a campus paper and after nineteen years of publication under one title, except for the break in 1905, the Normalite was laid to rest in a farewell issue.

The Peru Pedagogian, a name suggested by a member of the school's football team, became the title for the campus paper to carry on a long tradition.

The school library has bound volumes of these papers dating back to 1892. The years of 1901 and 1904 are not represented and it is unclear whether there were no publications for these years or whether the volumes are incomplete. These volumes are open for the public but may not be checked out. They are a fascinating source of information about facets of life ih these neriods.

It is interesting to note the revolt now being waged against the products and principles that pollute our environment; while we· continue to pollute our minds without thinking.

For example, those with time and money criticize the SST, Oil spills and the rise in temperature on our rivers from water used to cool atomic reactors.

But what about problems that hit just as hard. Atlantic Monthly (October, 1971) has devoted an entire issue to work in America and takes a look at the laborer to the professfonal person. All of these people fell the pressure of economy, morale and morals. ·

To complain and present problems is popular. Many journalists and writers make their money this way. It is easier for people in general to sit back and listen to the news commentators who analyze the news for you; the politician who offers you another service for the small cost of a three mill tax increase.

Our modern society wants to work four days a week and be entertained the rest of the time. There are too many people who don't care where the money comes from because you can always borrow now and pay it back later. When the cost of living goes up everyone is affected. The cost of room and board, books, clothes and beer all go up.

None of our conveniences come to us as a courtesy. It is costing us our country by hurting the morale and morals of our people. We are becoming lazy when we ask for more free time and then waste it away by living it up and spending wnat we make from our job without doing a little for ourselves to conserve.

The solution is with the individual. People have to do for themselves or pay for it because that is the way it is.

It has been noted that Broughton Foods has improved their meals and service this year. Right ! Right on!

Areliable source has informed me that one of the Delzell residents fell from the side of the dorm while trying to gain entrance to his room. He had been locked out. Better check those anti-gravity tablets. They might have soy bean meal in them.

On the serious side I would like to thank those people who made this column possible. I hope that we can all take time out to look back on what we did and laugh at f>ome of it.

Many of the early students at Peru Normal were eighth grade graduates who were doing high school work at the Nonna! School.

Delzell Hall is named after W. N. Delzell, who was a faculty member at Peru State from 1904 to 1940.

The first term of the Peru Seminary was taught in a small room downtown but the winter term was taught in the new building on the hill.

The first tuition rate at Peru was five dollars per term. With extra learning it went up to seven and a half dollars.

Peru State College's beginning dates back to 1865, when it was organized by a group of early settlers and placed under ''the care and management of the Methodist Episcopal church".

James D. Levitt, associate professor of English and speech, has been instrltcting at Peru: State College for 23 years. He originated the Fall Variety

During the 1961-62 academic year, $157 ,000 was spent to renovate and update the Peru State College library.

The Peru Alumni Association includes all graduates and former students of Peru State College. A50-year class reunion, a tradition at Commencement time, and the 25-year class reunion at Homecoming, have been arranged through the Alumni office for many years.

A statue of Horace Mann, housed in the auditorium, with several other gifts, was given to the college by the class of 1898.

Nebraska's first college, was guided through its first four years by President of the College, J. M. McKenzie.

Purple Sage Hosts· Drama

The Purple Sage Saloon in Buffalo City, U.S.A. was the talent showcase of Peru State's drama students this summer. Dancing saloon girls, a mustachioed bartender, a tough (and sometimes not so tough) sheriff, shoot ou,ts, bank robberies, and rag-time piano kept the audiences amused before and after plays. The drama workshop, directed by Mrs Mary Ruth Wilson, was offered for the first time this summer and was a smashing. success.

An hoilr-long show, consisting of a play, skits, and shenanigans

was presented three times each Sunday from June 20 to the end of the first session.· The show was then changed and revamped for the second session and ran for ·four consecutive Sundays. The shows were presented in and around the Purple Sage Saloon in Buffalo City. In keeping with the atmosphere of the surroundings, the program was designed to reflect actuality in the old western era.

Bobcats Disappointed Jn-Bid For First Win ZERO PREDICT v - '

Football, football, football, seems to be the topic on the mind of most of the sports fans across the nation. Every weekend footballs fill the air in many stadiums all through the land. Street corner conversations have switched from girl watching to football, and everybody seems to be'an expert. Last week Zero had a fine week in the field of predicting the winners in the key college games. So here he goes for another try.

The Fighting Irish Of Notre Dame play Big Ten rival Purdue. In last years game Purdue didn't even score a point, and they probably won't score this year-. Ara wants to be number one this year and will probably try to run up the score in this game, but Purdue will score. Notre Dame 44 Purdue 14.

The weather was chilly and so were most of the fans in the Oak Bowl who witnessed the football game between Peru State and Graceland. The Peru fans were anticipating a victory and this was enough to make them forget the weather, but in the end they were still cold and Peru was still looking for its first victory of the season. Graceland went home to Lamoni with a 29-22 victory.

Peru played the part. of the gracious host by letting the visitors score first. Graceland got on the scoreboard in the first few minutes of play when Doug Cottrell scored on a one yard run. This teuchdown was set up by a blocked punt, the first of two in the opening quarter. The Graceland brother act of Tim to Tom Arnold accounted for Graceland's second touchdown.·

Tim threw the ball to brother ' Tom and the result was a one yard touchdown pass. Jim Seeley ran for the -two point conversion and. that gave Graceland a 14 point edge. Peru scored in the second quarter on a seven yard pass play from Terry Criger to Avery Wallace. The key play in the drive was a 22 yard gain on a keeper play by quarterback Criger. ·

With just 13 seconds left in the first half Graceland scored

again when Tim Arnold ran across the goaline. With a two point conversion the score at half was 22-7 in favor of Graceland.

Peru scored late in the third quarter on a one yard run by Avery Wallace. Jim Desbien ran for the two point conversion and Peru narrowed the gap to 22-15. With 9:53 left in the third period the Yellowjackets scored again. This time it was a pass play from Al Dicken to Tom Arnold that covered 25 yardS. The placement was good and that made- the score 29-15.

'Ihe final Peru tally was set up when defensive back Gordon Thompson swiped a pass on the Peru seven and returned it to the Graceland 28 yard line. On the sixth play of the drive John Zatloukal scored from two yards out, Dan Dotton kicked the extra point and the final score was 29-22.

Friday, the delegates attended program bloc sessions throughout the entire day. These program sessions were arranged to give thorough exposure, to the attending delegates, to the realm of college union operations in the areas of governing boards, executive officers, art, entertainment, films, hospitality, lectures, recreation, travel publicity.

Saturday morning found the convention delegates in more focus sessions concerning topics of social awareness on the college campus. These morning sessions were, for the most part, handled by professional college and university personnel, who discussed such aspects of today's campuses such as drugs, minority groups, the free university, zero population growth and ecology.

The annual election of next year's ·president followed the focus sessions. Kansas State University's candidate emerged , victorious l;lfter a lengthly floor battle and many ballots.

Something new was added to the fall variety show this year. Bob Bowen was to be master of ceremonies, but due to a football injury he was unable to appear. In his place was Mr. J. D. Levitt. In all his years of sponsoring the show this was his first appearance on the stage. The stage band, tinder the direction of Dr. Gilber E. Wilson provided the pre - program music.

The traditional freshmen kick line started the show. The; · kickline this year wore a variety of clothing, later -changed to costumes.

The kickline was under the direction of Pam Miyoshi -and Susan Ritter. The girls did their routine to the ·song "Anything Goes." While the girls were changing clothes, the audience ·was entertained by three, Leo Golden, Bob Olson and Bob Wernsman who provided a dance routine. In place of the traditional straw hat the group

substituted a tennis racket.

A vocal trio of Andy Korus, Kathy Walker, and Joyce Gergen performed. Miss Gergen accompanied on the piano. Part of the Buffalo City cast from the summer theatre workshop was next m;1 the program. They were under the direction of Mrs Mary Ruth Wilson who also doubled as the piano player. The group did a variety of things taken from the workshop. Members inciuded Deb Hendrickson, Janet Wilson Roland Barrett, Diile Burke, Willie Fairbanks and John Thomas. Trevor Tuiolosega, preformed several numbers on the guitar and bass. The show ended with the band playing the color song.

Dianne Peter8on assisted in the prograining. Pam Miyoshi ,and Susan Ritter in charge of the costumes. Devoe Manning was the stage director. Decorations were done by the Advanced Debate class.

New Tape Deck Purchased

An eight track Craig tape deck was recently purchased by the Student Center Board and paid for by student program fees. The· Unit was purchased from World Radio Lab of Council Bluffs.

The normal cost of the unit would have been over $160.99, but SCB bought the unit on sale for under $130.

The brainstorm of Roger Oviat of the SGB, the tape player has several unique functions. It is capable of recording its own material so that tapes can be dubbed from discs. With this in mind, 20 blank tapes were purchased. The unit can be set to repeat a tape continuously.

Although the students will not be allowed to bring their own tapes to play on the machine, they can make requests from the student center library of tapes. The library includes music by the BI9od Sweat and Tears, Cat

Stevens and the Chicago.

Immediate plans include the purchase of more tapes with an emphasis on satisfying a general audience. According to Mrs Gayle Shipley, director of Student ·Center, the reason students will not be allowed fo play their own tapes is because tapes may jam. Also their might be some hassle over what was to be played.

225 More Books Must Be Sold

About 225 more books must be sold by October 5 if there is to be a 1972 yearbook, according to Everett Browning, yearbook advisor.

The yearbook staff has sold about 200 books at $8 each. A total of 500 books must be sold to provide money for the bid of $4,267, made by Walsworth Publishing Company of Marceline, Mo.

"If our sales reach 425 books by October 5 we can honor the contract and go ahead with the individual picture taking which is scheduled for October 6 and 7," Browning said.

"If we don't have 425 books sold by October 5, we can't have a yearbook, because we would have to commit upwards to $750 for the individual pictures and we can't commit that much money without being assured of a yearbook."

Yearbook sales staff will set up sales tables in the Student Center and salesmen will be on the campus Friday, Monday and Tuesday.

If sales are not great enough to print the yearbook, money paid will be returned to those who have bought· 1972 books, BroWlling said.

PEDITORIALS

Being a photographer, I have often wondered what the one picture that I would want to survive the holocaust that mankind seems so intent on giving us would be. Believe it or not it is not one that I have taken! In fact, it is not one that any·one individual took. Indeed the cumulative effort of many different men and women working together was needed to supply this picture. Achieving it reflects the embodiment of all the genius of man in learning to work and perform under the unalterable laws of the universe.

From the first flight at Kitty Hawk to the triumphant launching of the first artificial satelite, man has learned that he. can not suspend the physical laws of nature but must succumb to and be by them. Too bad he has not yet realized that there are laws at work that govern his relation to his fellow man.

To his credit he has realized that there are laws of cause and effect. Why can he not just as he applied them to the problems of Areospace flight apply them to the problems of our human society. It should be self-evident that as thrust causes lift so hate results in war. But, back to the subject.

It took many men to supply the gelatin and silver to make the emulsion that was used to take the picture. Many people formulated and mixed the chemicals that were needed to process the film.

So, when one individual pointed that camera, focussed it, and pressed the shutter release - for one instant - one tiny part of a secona, he gained the ultimate hope of all mankind and stored it on

The burden of making the whole mission a success or failure once again hinged on what one man did. One individual took the film carefully - ever so carefully-from the camera and placed it on the machine to process it. Care was taken to avoid any more light hitting the film than that which that one ' instant had submitted. He carefully checked the temperature of the chemicals. Their strength and suitability for the job had previously been born out. With everything "go" the processing started.

An hour or so later, the smell of chemicals trailing behind him, one delirously happy man emerged from a dimly lit room. He poised in front of his fellows obviously pleased and overjoyed with the part that he had had in accomplishing the completion of the mission.

"Here it is!" he must have said. "Is it beautiful!" And yes, finally there it was the picture of a shimmering blue jewel set 4gainst a solid black background. On its way through eternity, the earth had stopped for one instant to let its inhabitants know that it was jµst one world.

State College's Budget Set

Thru The Lens

A new set of dorm hours for the ladies of our campus went into effect last Friday, after being campaigned 'for by the student government and various petitions. These new hours will not do anymore than the old ones. Unless you are married, in the dorm after 11:30, or attending a private gathering there is nothing to do because the night spots close early.

In the past, the 11:30 dorm hours only bothered people if there was a dance or a keg party. They never restricted parking.

For those liberated women who view this new freedom as a milestone, you can forget it. H you are under 20 you must have parental permission to stay out.

H you are over 20, or can get your parents to consent to unrestricted hours, you are still subject to signing out, spending a night in a room to wait for later arrivals and basic responsibilities that any adult has.

All in all, it is my opinion that you haven't accomplished very ·much because a change in dorm hours does not make Peru a swinging school, nor does it act as a drawing card for a greater number of students to come here.

corner from the south and another from the east, an accident could be the outcome.

There was a stop sign on this corner in the past.

Two large holes can be found on the south corner of the west parking lot and there are numerous other holes that can be found in the street. The largest holes are five inches deep and could be very dangerous to any driver.

It is a shame that we can have our sidewalks widened as we did a year ago, reseed the campus as was done this year and not fix the street.

Perhaps it was an oversight. But if it was it cannot be overlooked for long.

Dear Editor, "Eny thin Goze" was the theme of the fall variety show. The question one might well ask is where is the variety show going? fa 1969 there were 22 acts. In. 1970 there were 13 acts. This year there were seven, counting the three times the band played.

By Jaon Backenberg

Peru State College has taken a giant step forward by allowing girls to have the privilege of no dorm hours.

Girls who participate in the program now can come and go as they desire, within reasoµ of course.

H nothing else, no hours gives a girl the opportunity to be responsible for herself. She has no one to tell her what is best for her. In other words, an individual is able to find out for herself what is best for her. And college is a time to find out what one's limitations are and to learn to be. responsible.

The buzzer system for letting girls in during the night is a.good beginning, but it has its drawbacks. First of all, a girl must be on duty all night to make sure all individuals who are to admitted are and that a person who does not blong in the dorm does not get in.

The draw backs come ·when the girl working has a test the

next day or other activity which' she should be alert. The second draw back comes on weekends when many students go home.

In such situations girls may not want to work, but would have to if she could not find a replacement or forego the no hours privilege. This in itself is not fair if the girl would be willing to work another night.

The buzzer system is a beginning, but it should be considered only as a beginning. A key system might work better, especially if a stiff fine would be placed on the individual who lost a key in any other way abused the trust put in her. A better way can and should be found.

The change has been a long time in coming and has taken much work on the part of many people, specifically the Student Governing Association and some members of the administrative staff. They are to be thanked and at the same time to be reminded that if progress is to continue, change should be eminent.

On the other hand, maybe a few more girls will be able to ·• sleep through classes that they do not like because they spent most of the previous evening watching Orion on his nightly jaunt through the skY.

A COMMENT

It is not the policy of this writer to raise questions_ and problems just for the sake of argument. UNO has a parking problem, the Lincoln campus needs bigger stadium and Peru has a troublesome and dangerous street ori the west end ot the campus. This college spends money every year on improvements in buildings, teaching aids and campus beautification. But why is the street on the west end of the campus lacking a stop sigh at the north end and why are large holes allowed to get bigger. without any attempt to fix them?

Adangerous situation exists in both cases. Traffic enters the west parking lot from the east. H a car approaches this particular

New Committee Structure Adopted

The committee structure at Peru State was realigned with the new administrative and instructional organizat!on formed last July. The new structure adopted September 16. The college affairs council is the main cog in the new structure. It is the first and only policy making body in the organization and this is it's main function.

The student affairs commission and the academic affairs commission are both directly responsible to the council. The faculty association may present matters to the academic affairs commission and the council.

Miller has been working on the cage with· the help of a few students. If more students would volunteer time, the cage could be completed in two to three weeks, he said.

Melvin Reoassigned

Dr. Keith L. Melvin, vice, president of academic affairs at PSC has been granted approval for a change in assignment. The change becomes effective· ·with the end of the fall semester.

- Previously, Dr. Melvin, a 1932 graduate of Peru, was dean of McCook Junior College from 1946 until 1955. After his graduation from Peru, Dr. Melvin taught science and mathematics and coached at Upland, was principal at Syracuse, and served as superintendent of schools at Blue Hill.

Dr. Melvin will be re-assigned to a teaching position in one of the many areas in which he is qualified. An immediate search will begin for his successor, hopefully to be available at the start of second semester, according to President Gomon. Only two board membersDr. Francis J. Brown of Genoa and Education Commissioner Cecil Stanley voted against the motion. They said they would have preferred to make the transfer effective after the second semester.

SGA Interview

By Mike Summers

While slumbering over a freshly developed print I wondered what the Student Governing Association was doing to improve student life on campus. I interviewed Steve, it's president. The SGA office is open Tuesdays and Thursdays during lunch hours: I chose Tuesday. The following is the interview which took place:

Q. What has the SGA done so far this year to improve campus life?

A. So far the SGA has been working on several projects. It has completed two already. Those completed are the removal of girl's dormitory hours and the change of .library hours. Other areas that the SGA is working in is the expansion of independent study, a survey determining the attitude of students toward room inspection. A campaign to foster interest in voting on both a local and national level and participation in a regional blood conference to let the students have a better opportunity to donate their blood to the already critically low blood bank. Plans are also being made in regard te the Homecoming Weekend, along with various other projects that are of the students interest.

Q. What was the SGA's involvement in the removal of dormitory hours?

A. The Student Affairs Committee of the .SGA, Connie Morrison, Margie Lewis, and Mike Kelly were very active in this project. They acted as a coordinating factor between the dormitories and the administration and they were very helpful in giving suggestions and finding out information so that the project moved along smoothly. Willie Fairbanks, a Committee member was also very active in this issue.

Q. What was SGA's part in changing the library hours?

A. The research Committee of the SGA collected information from the students to see whether they wished to have any changes made. Mike O'Brien and Roxann Rengstorf with this information made suggestions to Mrs Brandt. She was very helpful and cooperative.

Q. There are many other things that the SGA is working on. How can students get involved in these projects?

A. Interested students may pick up committee applications at the SGA office in the Student Center Tuesday and Thursdays during lunch hours. That is also a good time to make any suggestions or criticisms that any student may have. Students may also come to the meetings which are held every Tuesday at 6:00 P.M. in the Fine Arts Building Room 212 to express their views.

Q. I noticed this year that the SGA minutes are placed in the student's mailboxes?

A. Yes, Julie Tillman, the secretary of the SGA, has them duplicated and distributed to the students. She also has copies sent to administrative heads and to faculty members.

Q. Why is this done?

A. The SGA feels it is important that the student body faculty and administration be informed about its activities so that they may offer their advise and criticisms.

Q. Do you feel that the SGA is an important factor in the student's life at Peru?

A. The question is relative. The association may become very important to a student, but it is dependent on how much enthusiasm that is directed toward the SGA by him. I do feel that it is an intergral part of student representation: it allows views an.d opinion to be expressed openly and action to be taken on them.

Q. I believe I have material enough for the present, but one last question. With President Gomon retiring in two years, do you feel that the students should have a voice in determining who his successor should be?

A. Precedent has been set in other colleges where a student advisory committee has been named parallel to a faculty committee to advise the President in his search for a successor. Here at Peru State, we will have to wait and see if their is any student interest in this direction.

With the interview at an end, we exchanged curiosities, and then I left to type my story. I felt a little better about the SGA and its efforts to improve the quality of campus life.

Senior class elections will be held in the Fine Arts Auditorium, Wednesday, October 6, during the convocation period.

All seniors are asked to attend and vote for the candidate of their choice.

Culligan Lady Takes Over

By Mike Summers

The Plymouth slowed as it approached the driveway to Delzell Just as_ she turned in the car scraped the bottom. She would later learn that this was a common occurance no matter how slow one drove into the driveway.

It was a hot August 19. The morning sun beat down heavily over her head. Getting out of the car she approached the rear of the building. The hall loomed before her like a massive giant. It was to be the biggest house she had ever lived in so·far. This was · to be home for the next nine months for her family of over 150 young men. She knew of no other woman who could boast that they had so big a family.

Opening the door she was grtie.ted by a gust of cool air. It was a welcome feeling for she was convinced that it was going to be a hot one this day. Her

Draft-Law

Passed By Congress

A much fairer draft system will be brought about by the new draft passed by Congress, accordmg to local selective service agent John Muse of Auburn.

The major change in the new legislation is the abolishment of college student deferments. Muse indicated, however, that the new system should be more advantageous not only to those men not in school, but also to college students.

The local agent has received word from the Washington office that they will not reach as high in the lottery numbers to induct men for the service. This will be brought about by the abolishment of student deferments.

Previously not all the men in one number could be drafted because of student deferments, the new law will allow most men ·with low numbers to be drafted.

Without a deferment a man is subject to induction until the age of 26. Previously students obtaining a deferment were eligible to the age of 35.

The selective service will h:we to re11rh 11s hillh in lottery numbers, but still be to draft the same number men.

Muse has received word t only those with a lottery num of around 140 will be draf when previously the number: eligibility went as high as · Students will be alloweJ finish the present schola_ semester if drafted, or if in tfinal year, they will be allo · to complete schooling u graduation.

The selective service had power to induct men into service since June. legislation concerning the passed by Congress on tember 21, has not been si by President Nixon. The si is expected soon, and , hopes to have the power rest' by late October or e. November.

footsteps echoed as she walked up the long stairs that led to the hall. Putting her suitcase down, she opened the door and walked into the lobby. The place seemed a tomb, still and lifeless. For those first few days it would be - until she got use to the place and her newly acquired family started moving in.

Her son had just graduated from Peru State this spring. She had not the slightest indication -at that time that she would be gaining so big a family so soon.

Mrs Mary Kunkel made her home in Falls City, Nebraska and was a Culligan Soft Water Service representative. The tendancy to call her a "Culligan Lady" must be resited she says. For there are no "Culligan Lady's," just Culligan Men. As the first day came to an end the quietness of the building again was everywhere present. It shouldn't have upset her though, it would never be that

quiet again.

The first of her new family arrived on the 22 of August. She had been on her knees scrubbing the office floor when she heard a "tap" "tap" on the desk top. She looked up. There standing tall, staring _ down at her was Air Force Captain Dennis Mitchell. "I'd like to check my son in, please." She stood up rather embarrassed and lumbered into her apartment in search of her keys.

In the days that followed more students began to arrive and the dorm began to take on a lived in atmosphere. By the thirty-first most of her family would be moved in and exchanging questions about their summer. The dust on the TV screen was brushed away and some of the family took to watching TV.

Formally she is known as Mrs Mary Kunkell but to those who live in Delzell and appreciate her genuine concern for her new family .she is simply ''mom."

Fashion Trend,

How many of you have ever taken the time to glance through one of your parent's yearbooks?

If you have you were probably awed at some of the fashions worn in that particular era.

Fashion trends change constantly. It is very likely that the styles of this generation will appear as hopelessly absurd to the teen-agers of the future as the styles of the past appear to present day teens.

Often a style a fashion of an earlier era, but the style has been adapted to suit modern expectations and standards. For example, the socalled modern mini-skirt is actually a replica of the skirt worn by the flappers in the 1920's. Maxi-skirts have been recurrent on the costume scene throughout the ages.

Flare· leg pants in a multitude of fabrics and designs, including the popular denim jeans, can be contrasted to the stretch pants of the early 1960's. Dress lengths vary according to a girl's mood and personality.

The midi-skirt recently made its debut on the fashion scene.

James Brown has even dedicated a song to hot pants, one of the most current styles to be introduced. Hot pants are actually short shorts and can be worn throughout the year. During the winter months hot pants can be worn with kneehigh boots.

Hair styles have under changes also. The beehive __ style of early 1960's has : replaced by the more natlook and the shag. Hair is in many different ways to Longer hair on boys is current trend. A great dea_ individuality is expressed in length and style of a per hair.

Designs on clothing are ' tracting attention in the fas world. Teens sport clothes ' flags, butterflies, hot dogs, ,. even pieces of pie.

Ped 'Views Pot & Drug Abuse

By Mike Summers

In view of the recent rise in the use of marijuana and drugs, the Ped presents this Candid off the cuff interview with an ex drug abuser.

Q. What is your definition of a Pothead?

A. A pothead is a person who centers his life around the use of Marijuana. This person doesn't just consider it a fun past time The pothead doesn't consider it h,e just does along with everythmg else. Marijuana is actually the biggest thing in their life. Apothead gets to be a certain type of person - he has certain types of habits. I noticed something very strange when I began to smoke it. I started to become very sloppy. My head just got into grass. I forgof about everything else. My thoughts would center around Marijuana - like listening to music I'd wish I was stoned - everything I did, I'd wish I was stoned. The thought that was in my mind all the time was when's the next time I'm going to do it. That's what the pothead thinks.

Q. What made you start smoking pot?

A. Well, I just wanted to do it. I was just an adventurous person and I didri 't really see anything wrong with it. I thought it was something that would just be like a big thrill for me. At this time in my life, nothing was going on. I was kind of bored. And that's why I did it.

Q. What influence did your peer group play in influencine: you to smoke Marij_uana, if an:y?

A. A very very large part! In fact if it wasn't for a certain friend of mine, I doubt if I ever would have smoked any.

The Case Against Marijuana

"In the United States, where more than $5 billion are spent for drugs each year, there is an almost mystical faith in the power of drugs to heal, to ease pain,,to tranquilize - even to help people "escape" from the rigors of modern - day living.

"While the dangers of physically addicting drugs such as heroin and morphine are readily acknowledged, increasing numbers turned to amphetamines to pep them up, barbituates to calm them down, and hallucinogens to "turn them on." Most popular was marijuana. Current estimates on users in the United States range up to 20 million. Marijuana is no longer a drug that is primarily used among low - incom{! groups. "Pot" has found its way into the affluent suburbs, high schools, college dormitories, and even into the military services.

"When educators, law enforcement officers, parents, and doctors argue that marijuana is a dangerous drug, its defenders reply that since it is not physically addictive, marijuana is perfectly safe. But is it s;ife?

"Many marijuana users apparently do enjoy its effects with out suffering, ,any permanent physical damage. Alcohol, these users say, is far more

dangerous, and they cite the 20,000 deaths that occur each year in the United States from liver and heart disease and other physical disorders related to alcoholism.

"Law enforcement officers respond that marijuana is indeed dangerous, and among other things point to the role it plays in leading people to "harder stuff", such as the true narcotic, heroin.

"Very powerful support for the antimarijuana view came from two medical and scientific groups on June 24, 1968. Committees of the two groups, the American Medical Association and the National Research Council of the National Academy of Sciences, spent two years studying medical and scientific literature on marijuana. They concluded that even weak marijuana preparations can cause anti-social behavior "with serious

"In support of their findings, the groups cited a recent study by the federally operated Addition Research Center in Lexington, Ky. Dr. Harris Isbell, director of the study, found that strong doses of marijuana produce psychotic symptoms including delusions and hallucinations, in most subjects.

"Yet the use of marijuana

continues to rise. Dr. Dana Farnsworth, director of health services at Harvard Universitv. told a symposium at the of Physicians of Philadelphia that 30 to 35 percent of the students at major universities on the East and West coasts had tried marijuana at least once and that about half of the students said that they had repeated the experiment.

"The federal government finally took strong action to curb drug abuse in 1968. A riew Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs was formed and placed in the Department of Ju!tice. This was expected to strengthen the enforcemtnt of federal laws on drugs.

"Thus the teen-ager or college student who takes a brief fling with pot invites possiblE;! undesirable side effects. Also, legal dangers and the stigma of carrying a criminal record can hold vast implications for a person's future. In most areas of the United States, it is difficultif not impossible - for a young personwith a narcotics conviction to enter such professions as teaching and law, and it is even difficult to gain employment in some industries."

Drugs: A Year Book Close'UP 1969 P314.

E. Kenneth Froslid

Q. Most people in favor of legalizing pot say that smoking it does not neccessarily lead to the use of other drugs. What is your feeling on this?

A. Well, I don't know if it directly leads to the use of stronger drugs or indirectly. In my case it was a little bit of both. It indirectly led to the use of stronger drugs, because the guys that I was with started doing the stronger stuff, It ·was just natural for me to follow them. I guess ifu just usually the crowd you're aroundwhatever they do you usually do the same thing. Also there is a tendancy to get kind of spoiled with it. It gets to be kind of monotonous. So you want to try something bigger - something new. I really do think it leads to the use of stronger drugs.

Q. What sort of drugs did it lead you to use?

A. The first drugs that I bought, I bought down at the drug store. They were drugs you could buy without a prescription. I bought some motion sickness pills - drammamine and I took about four or five of those and I took some No-Doz tablets. If you know what that does. Drammamine is a "downer" and No- ' doz is a "upper". You take them both together and it does strange things to you, After taking those pills it led: dropped speed just a little bit Then I started taking LSD.

Q. What is the feeling that you get when you take speed'!

A. Speed? It's gross! Well, it's kind of hard to describe, All the

time I was on it I kept taking my pulse. Once I took my pulse and it was 160 beats per minute. It was forty beats in 15 seconds. I was walking at the time and my veins were sticking out all over. I was not hungry, I didri't want any food. The thought of foo made me sick!

I just kind of felt awful' all over. My muscles felt worn out. I felt like I was going t,o fall over. It does make you hallucinate. If you take enoue:h of it. It distorts natural things. It doesn't make you see anything new particularly. A certain object will , become distorted. Your eyes play tricks on you. Those are the kind of hallucinations you get.

Q. The kicks that you got were they then the hallucinations?

A. Just the whole thing altogether. I said that I felt really gross, but that was toward the end of it. I felt like superman at the first part of it. I felt just fantastic. I felt like I could jump fifty feet in the air. I was running around I had so much energy. I couldri't believe it. At this time was very shy. But when I took i I was running around talking t everybody, to people that I ha never seen before. I remembe giving some money away t some people. They were tryin to make a phone call and I just felt really good. I liked everybody. I wanted to talk to everybody. I just wouldri't shut up my mouth. I just kept talking. The main thing that I enjoyed about it was that I just felt s alert. I felt really good.

Q. You say you also took LSD. What did LSD do for you?

A. When I first started to take LSD, I kept trying to get into what I'd heard people talk about - the things they had seen. I didri 't really get into anything until the tenth or twelfth time I took it. That was when I took enough that it took me completely away from reality. Always before, I was close enough to reality that I coul hang on. I didri 't just let myself go completely. But when I took enough that I couldri't hold onto reality and I just went over the deep end. All of a sudden I was in a different world where nothing was real. Every object had a personality. It was the real experience called A lot of people may take LSD but they never experience the Trip. - ··

Q. What was the 'inain source of money to support the habit?

A Actually the Marijuana didn't cost very much at al because this friend and I learne how to pick it. We learned how to process it. We learned how to let it mold in a certain way that it would become really super! I don't know what kind of mold that grew on it or what it did for it but it made it fantastic, It made ir really colorful experience to it. So, this didn't really cost anything, LSD when I bought it, I was doing it about

"This weed is used in the making of Marijuana."

Dear Loui

two years ago. It was very expensive at this time. In the town that I lived in there were very few dopers around. Long. hairs two years ago was almost non existant. The first hit I bought cost six dollars. Now days that would be extremely expensive. It was worth the money then because of the scarcity. The money that I used was just money that I had laying around. It makes me kind of ashamed ta say that I spent birthday money, I spent lawn mowing money, I spent snow shoveling money, I spent my allowance: I'd take my lunch to school and that way I wouldn't spend very much money buying lunch. Just anyway I could do it I got the money that way. Most people they smoke Marijuana then .· they have the desire to get into something stronger. And then because of the cost of it, they start dealing to get enough money to support their own habit this is where most people get their money.

I have used all types of drugs Jrom hash, pot and acid to hard stuff. It's all a bad scene. The people who push the stuff don't use it becuase they know it's bad stuff. They can see what it does to you. All you are doing is ruining your life and letting people make money through you

Q. Do you feel that everyone should try drugs at least once?

A. Definitely not. Thank you.

I am a senior hoping to graduate in December. But due to one small problem, which I am now faring, I am afraid I' won't be able to make my December graduation.

Run To Daylight

It was halftime. The big brass band had taken its' place on the 50 yard line, sending sounds off the tiny, but modest playing field. The teams' mascot the Golden Bear, weaved the ever-ehanging formations of the band, prancing around with his head held high and he had good reason, .Westbrook led Hampton, 28-0.

John Nelson stood on the sidelines anxiously awaiting the haltime show to end. There was certainly nothing to worry about he thought to himself as the Blue Devils made their appearance on the opposite side of the field.

Coach Henderson's pep talk was to the point. "Let's eat up the clock and not make mistakes." In the first half of ·this cross-town rivalry, the Golden Bears scored first on a touchdown pass that covered 28 yards. Quarterback Jim Anderson added six more points on a 10 yard jaunt around left end three minutes later to widen the lead.

A slight cross-wind was blowing across the field but it was not strong enough to hamper the deep man awaiting the kick-0ff.John Nelson was one of them.

"Run it back this time cowboy," his teammate Ed said with a grin. The pair then trotted out to their own 20. There they lined up on the opposite hashmarks on the field. Nelson watched Mitchell adjust his chin strap. He was trying hard to appear anything but nervous. He had underwent the knife late last season for the removal of torn cartilage in his knee, and as a result, he had to alter his style. Prior to the injury, initial contact could only slow the 5-10 190 lb. halfback from picking up another two or three yards before being brought down. But that was yesterday

The kick-0ff was an end - over ender, veering off of Mitchell's left shoulder pad as he attempted an over - the - shoulder catch. Nelson, who had circled in scooped up tfie squibbleJ\ as it hit the ground on the 20 near · the sidelines.

By this time the defense was bearing down upon him. He did a little jig to shake off the handgrip a burly tackle had on his ankle. His blockers were now just beginning to form but not quickly enough. For a' fleeting · moment, it had appeared that the end had come. He was trapped, crimson - colored jerseys engulfed him on two

sides as he tightroped across the 30. A little dip of his shoulder threw one would-be tackler off balance, allowing him just enough time to cut back and escape to midfield. At the 45 he · was running smoothly the pigskin safely tucked his right arin. ',

There, at the 45, he found hls route blocked. 'three tacklers were gathering at about the 50. To the surprise of everyone, he wheeled around reversing his field in a wide arc. He made his through mass of falling. bodies, by dartmg, weaving and changing speeds. At the is he momentarily lost his balance as a lineman went after the ball partially jarring it from grasp. A second defender attempted a shoelace tackle but to no avail. '

His journey continued until he reached the 20, where from the corner of his eye he spotted a defensive back cutting diagonally across the field. It soon became apparant that Nelson could not outrun him. The pursuer steadily gained ground. A head-on collision seemed inevitable. He lowered his helmet as the two gladiators met. The initial shock of impact stood them both upright momentarily. Then, the defender reeled over backwards, taking the ballcarrier down with him at the five. Thus ending a 75 yard run, but no touchdown.

No More Songs To Be Sung

It appears that another of Peru's traditions has disappeared. The oldest member of Peru's past faculty has finally found her resting place. Every year the freshmen were greeted with the tales of Eliza Morgan's spiritual visits. Stories of her impish sometimes mournful journeys through the echoing halls would be told and revised.

This year ·it seems Eliza having taken a dislike to the workmen has escaped from Morgan's draught halls forever. Perhaps it was because they changed the heating system so she could not longer sing through the pipes. Whatever the reason we wish Eliza good luck and hope she doesn't find DavidsonPalmer.

Ater a week of some upsets it's time for 7.ero to tread ground where no other man dare travel. This business of picking winners isn't as easy as one may think. 7.ero never hears about the winners he picks only the losers come back to haunt him.

Probably the top game of the week finds the USC Trojans traveling to Norman to play the Sooners in the dreaded snake pit. This should be a very interesting game. Both teams have a great offense, and an adequate defense. The key to this game is who can control the ball the longest. Oklahoma is noted for their fine running attack and ball control, while Southern Cal likes to put points on the board anyway they can. I look for the Trojans to upset the Sooners. USC 35 Oklahoma 34.

After counting their blessings for a week the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame must again take to the gridiron to probe that they. are NUMBER ONE. Last week they had trouble with a Big Ten foe and this week should be no different. You can bet ·your sweet hippy that Michigan State will be ready, but look for lucky Ara's boys to pull another victory. Notre Dame 71/4 Michigan State 61/2.

The Big Eight season opens with Kansas State traveling to Boulder to play Colorado.

could be a long day fOr 'the Wildcats. This could be the year of the Buffalo. It's too bad they aril in the same conference with Nebraska. Colorado by an easy three touchdowns, Colorado 33 Kansas State 7.

Nebraska is at home again this week playing the Aggies from Utah State. This very well could be a repeat of the three previous games. Nebraska will show enough to win, but won't hurt themselves. This should be another easy Cornhusker win.

Nebraska 35 Utah State 0.

There are two games on inon the state college scene. Kearney State and Chadron State will lock horns on the Kearney field. Last year Kearney won by four points and this year should be no exception. With Tom Kropp carrying the mail the Antelopes should win again. Kearney State 33 Chadron State 17.

The Peru State Bobcats will definitely break their ten game losing streak when they play South Dakota Southern. It has been a long time between vietories and the Bobcats are getting hungry. Peru should win ,this one. Peru State 35 South Dakota Southern 8. Looking over the complete scope of football here are some sure losers: Minnesota, Georgia Tech, and Tulane. See you next week.

Harriers Get Revenge

The Peru State cross country team defeated 'Northwest Missouri State 20-38 last Friday to avenge an early season loss to the same school.

Bill Hindry from Maryville won the race over the four mile course in the time of 20:06. The Bobcat runners took the next four places with Don Monzingo finishing second, followed by Dave Hillman, Jerry Stuken· holtz, Bill Sell, and Dave Harris.

Maryville Drops Cats By 7

The Peru State Bobcats traveled to Maryville, Missouri la&t Saturday night in quest of their first victory of the year, but instead came home the loser in a close ball game. Northwest Missouri State won by the score of 35-28.

An interception of a Bobcat pass in the first few minutes of the opening quarter set up the first Bearcat louchdown.

Jim Maddick kicked the extra point and that made the score HI in favor of the Missourians.

The rest of the first quarter belonged to Peru and they scored with'· 1:19 left in the quarter when fullback John · Zatloukal scored on a one yard rwi. The first Bobcat score was Uie result of a fine 80 yard 15

play drive. Dan Cotton kicked the extra point and tied the ball game up.

In the second quarter the Missourians struck back to take the lead. Joe Wingate caught a pass and before the play was over went 73 yards for the score. Peru then got the ball and scored three plays later. The Peru tally came on a 23. yard pass play from Terry Criger to Randy Den. Peru went into the dressing room at half with a 7 point lead.

The Peruvians took the lead with only 33 seconds remaining in the half when defensive back Gordon Thompson swiped a Bearcat pass and returned it 75 yards to pay dirt.

There were three touchdowns scored in the third quarter, two by Maryville and one by Peru.

The first Bearcat tally came with 11: 19 remaining on a two yard keeper by Mike Kennedy. Their second TD of the auarter

came with 2:57 left on a three yard run by Jim Albin. Peru's final tally came on a well executed five play drive. The score came on a 46 yard pass play from Terry Criger to Avery Wallace.

With just 5:08 left in the game Maryville scored the winning TD. The fleet Steve McCluskey gathered in a punt and raced 63 yards for the TD and the winning margin of victory.

Two Bobcats received injuries that will keep them out of action in this week's game. Bill Kennedy suffered a leg injury and Steve Shupe pulled some ligaments.

The Bobcats hit the road again in quest of their first victory of the year when they travel to Springfield to play South Dakota Southern. Peru will be trying to end a 10 game losing streak. The last Peru victory was against this team last year in the Oak Bowl.

Problems Of Small College Teams

In the old days the small college was usually the stopping place for the farm boy athelete because the larger schools were interested in only those people who were outstanding scholars and if time permitted could .play football, basketball, or baseball as a side endeavor. This is no longer true. Most of the large universities are now diligently recruiting the best atheletes to play the major sparts, even if they lack the mental ability upstairs where it counts. This has hurt the small college athletic programs because most of the top atheletes will go to the school that wines and dines them and promises them the best deal. This isn't to say that there have never been any top atheletes on the small college scene, because there have. But what is being said is that it is hard for the small school to get the super star because of the headlines and big time offered him by the bigger schools.

Through the years Peru has had its share of good atheletes and in most cases they have been above average students. But today with competition as it is the student who used to come to Peru is now going elsewhere because more is offered to them and they can make the big splash in the big time. Let it be known that Peru will still field athletic teams and will be very competitive. Even though most of the teams we play are from bigger schools the Peru bunch is hungry and will fight until time has run out. Also let it be knpwn that the Peru athelete will know more than statistics. from the sports world, he will also have an education that will take him farther than any blocked punt, fast break, or basket.

If the Peruvian staff does not sell 400 by Oct. 6, will be no yearbook for 1971-72 If you,

PEDITORIALS

January 1, 1971, marked the beginning of a new era in American politics. Eleven and one-half million young Americans at the age of 18 won the right to vote. Then why aren't they registering?

It was a long, hard pull with many people fighting hard for the legislation, and now that it has .been passed, only a small percentage of the total have registered. To vote in the primary, you must be registered by April 28, 1972.

If anything is to be changed, voting is the best way to do it. The vote is one of the most powerful tools an American has, for we the people, big and little, rich and poor, do run this country - if we vote. The government spends our money - with the vote, we can tell them how.

Register now, and at election time vote. Your one vote can make a difference. For example, the 1960 presidential election was decided by one voter for each precinct in Illinois. Illinois's 26 electorial votes would have changed the national outcome. Your one vote does mean more than you think it does.

Instead of complaining about what is wrong with the government, show your discontent by registering, and at election time vote for the candidate you feel will do the most good.

There is more to it than just voting. Register today and begin to make your vote count in the next election. Find out how government works, and keep up with the issues and the candidates. Know the kinds of decisions-your vote will affect. Don't go by unreliable sources that discuss motives rather than issues, and personalities rather than ideas; they will probably insinuate rather than document. In all, become politically aware.

Always remember, "Vote and the choice is yours, don't vote and the choice is theirs." If you haven't registered, do it nowit's your country.

MONEY VS. EXCELLENCE ByJOANBACHENBERG

Can money solve all of the problems of Peru State College? Can money create a winning football team? Can money boost school spirit? Can money get more students?

In the opinion of this individual, the answer to all of the above questions is no. Money can get new and better buildings and more instructors. Money, however, can do little else.

Money cannot create a winning football team. Only good players and coaches can do that. Athletic scholarships can get players, but they do not have to be good or even win to merit that free education. Performance is the test of good coaches.

Money cannot boost school spirit. Only a student body that has pride in the school can do that. Reason for pride cannot be faked, it has to be genuine. Money can only be a token payment to individuals for time and effort put into various activities. It can also display a partisan attitude to those receiving payment for their duties, while other individuals who put possibly more time and effort into school activities are lucky to receive a word of thanks.

Money cannot get more students. It may be a factor in getting more individuals to attend the college, but it does not insure that the individuals will be students. Nor is that a sure thing any more because even if a scholarship is offered to a potential student, that does not mean that he will accept it.

Money can buy many things, but it cannot buy pride, school spirit, honor, intelligence and a winning football team. These things the students of Peru State College will have to achieve for themselves.

A person d to calculate how to get ough or around without ing an extra shower or two fore the day was over. Even the dogs were getting nfused on how and where to avel. Teachers were seen nning along the sidewalk king an effort to beat the er circuit of the sprinklers a few didn't quite make it. What is the reason for these

plentiful water sprinklers? Well, students have been heard to say: "They're there to keep the sidewalks and buildings clean." Others have said that everyone should take advantage of the water while the weathers hot and get into their swimsuits. Still others have said it's just something to keep the maintenance men busy but that is a rather doubtful assumption.

Actually, the maintenance men have been very busy and efficient in theirwork to sow the grass and water the campus grounds.

For a while we all wondered if it was worth all the bother, but if you'll take a look around the campus, you'll see that there is grass growing. So even though it was bothersome for a few weeks, it was worth the inconvenience to enhance the beauty of our campus.

PERU PEDAGOGIAN Letter To The Editor

On the contrary, Mr Lens .;..... I do consider the abrogation of the almighty 11:30 a milestone; not just for co-eds, but for the entire college. It's hard to believe that. the girls of Peru State College can now leisurely stroll back to their rooms, and not worry about racing back at the last dying minute. Sitting up all evening to greet your equally-liberated sisters. is no big deal - you have some grueling task ahead of you in the a.m., it's easy to switch nights with someone who doesn't. And why shouldn't this new policy attract more collegebound people to Peru? As far as desirability goes, this college needs all the help it can get- if it offers all the comforts of home, so much the better. Not only scholastically, but also socially will people learn to achieve the communication that comes from experiencing things together. This what life is all about. Giving women their rights is just one more step toward the harmonious coexistence of both sexes. A liberated women is a happy woman.

Thomas Attends Conference

John Thomas, a junior at PSC returned Monday, October 4, from a North Central Regipnal student political action and leadership clinic at Hudson, Wisconsin.

Thomas was of the approximately 400 students and consultants from North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Nebraska, Iowa, and Wisconsin attending the conference. The main idea of the conference was aimed at training college youth to become active participants in the political process and to get the young people on their campuses to register to vote.

The conference offered training sessions in effective lobbying, public relations in politics, and techniques for launching voter registration campaigns. The participants, all , prospective teachers, heard Senator George McGovern, Democratic candidate for United States president, speak. The conference was a project of Student National Education Association (SNEA) and North Central Region Student Education Associations.

Thomas is vice-president of Peru Student Education Association ·(PSEA). Other Nebraska colleges in attendance were: College of Saint Mary, Wayne State, Kearney State, Hastings College, UNO, and Nebraska Wesleyan.

In the spring of 1867, the students and faculty were treated to a venison dinner by a student who had shot the deer within a few rods of the school building.

puting, w,here a projected 5,211 places will be open and 4,097 openings for Stenographic and Secretarial positions. The fouryear programs are in Business Education Teacher Training and Business Administration.

Ensemble To Tour

This year Peru State's College band has been rearranged into a concert wind ensemble consisting of thirty-four student members.

An 0•1ernight concert tour in Iowa is being planned for

November 22 and 23. The 34 members will be accompanied by Dr. Gilbert ·wnson and Dr. Gavin Doughty. Several soloists will be presented on this tour. John Brooks will play a solo on the french horn, Doug Kottich will perform a portion of the original sound track of Love Story on piano and Bob Tipton will present a saxophone solo.

This year's officers have recently been elected. They

include: President - Jim Dickson, Vice. President _:. Dianne Dunn, and SecretaryDeborah Coff.elt. Members chosen for the band board are Karen Ramsay and John Brooks.

The stage band, composed of members chosen from the concert wind ensemble, wili also perform on the concert tou.: The stage band, which made its debut earlier this year at the Variety Show, plays only popular songs and also serves as pep band during basketball games.

Zero Predicts

'

By Gary Grady

UpS'ets seem to be the spice· that college football needs. Upsets make the game as exciting as it is, but they certainly don't help the predicting percentage of Zero. I suffered through a miserable week last week, but now I'm back for more punishment.

Let's first look at the three league games in the Big Eight. Tough Colorado travels to the land of the Cyclones to play Iowa State. The Buffaloes are tough, too tough for lowa State, the Cyclones better have a lot of wind ready because the team from the Rockies will be ready to play. This game could be a tun away. Colorado 37 Iowa State 14.

The two Kansas teams get together and play in the Probation Bowl 1971. Last year's game was played in Manhattan, and this year's edition is being played in Lawrence. The home field advantage should give the edge to Kansas, but the only thing this is going to do is make Kansas State play harder. The Wildcats should prevail in this one. Kansas State 24 Kansas 7.

The final conference game of the week finds the Nebraska team traveling io·play the tearrf from Missouri. Missouri just doesn't have it this year and this game really shouldn't even be close. The Huskers have too much for the Tigers to cope with. Whether by land or air the Huskers will score. Nebraska 42 Missouri o.

The headline game of the week finds the traditional Oklahoma, Texas war in the Cotton Bowl in Dallas. This should be a very close game and the winner should go on to bigger and better things. Last year Texas won and this left a sour taste in the Sooner's mouths. This year should erase all bad memories. Oklahoma will win. Oklahoma 40 Texas 17.

Peru State will play the team from Missouri Western. As of yet the Bobcats have not been able to put everything together at the same time. This may be the week they do, but you never know. I'd like to pick Peru, but I have to go with Missouri Western and hope that this is one that I miss. Missouri Western 28. Peru State 20.

"Whodunit?"

onPSC Campus

Last year the efforts of many people were consummated by the placing of the Peru State College sign in front of the education building.

Donna's Gift Shop donated the sign. Dennis Robertson sanded and Margee Heiser aided with the painting. Pete lsaccson set the lights up. Maintenance donated the poles, put up the sign, and wired it.

At first there were 134 letters purchased plus the welcome, but 20 letters have been stolen so far this year. The letters cost a dollar a piece and Circle K is saddled with t.he cost.

Dr. · Darrell Wininger, the faculty advisor has been changing the sign this year. According to Dr. Wininger it has become difficult to spell many words because several letters have been taken.

La.st Monday the sign was again scrambled, so now the question is, "How many letters are missing now?"

During the spring term of 1868 at PSC, an earthquake knocked pieces of brick from the walls and caused tables and chairs in the chapel to move about.

Homecoming candidates are: L. to R., Cathy Cole, Marlene Meyer, Betty Johnson, Charlene arrahill, and Jeannine Davis.

n. Mary Anna Gnade will head costuming department for e opera.

Planned by the college's school and community relations committee, the program is an effort to show appreciation for interest and support of Peru State, according to Dr. Thomas Scherer, Committee chairman. Where are the missing letters?

PEDITORIAL

Homecoming is rapidly approaching its 50th anniversary. Last year under the guidance of the Homecoming Co-ordinating Committee, the 49th annual PSC Homecoming was truly an en-. thusiastic, impressive display of student involvement. Let's try to keep the enthusiasm again this year.

This year's homecoming will again feature the parade, window painting, crowning of the queen at halftime, dance, and concert, along with the annual alumni meetings, and the Homecoming Play.

With so many events happening in a weekend, students should take every chance to become an active participant in the homecoming festivities. Last year's homecoming proved that the PSC students can and will become involved.

Let's try and make this homecoming THE best one yet. The Golden Anniversary of Peru State College Homecoming will undoubtedly be one to be remembered for a long time, but it's going to need the hard work and support of the student body.

Teacher Education Committee - Susan Torczon, Joan Bachenberg, Roxanne Rengstorf.

Student Affairs Committee - Mike Kelly, Connie Morrison. Academic Affrairs Committee - Pat Castle.

Scholarship and Financial Aid Committee - Eprl Brown, Dorothy Dux.

The SGA office will be open every Tuesday and Thursday from 11: 00 to 1: 00 in the small dining room of the Student Center. If there are any questions or comments regarding the SGA there will be someone there to help or listen.

Last Wednesday all class elections were held and ruled valid by the SGA. There was some comment as to whether the elections were run correctly, and whether the right people were in each office. The SGA looked into the situation and found everything to be suitable.

For t,he students who have found "that little pink slip" on their windshield, the appeals office, located in the Maintenance building, is open Monday through Friday. The hours are as follows 9:00to 9:40, 10:30to 11:30, 1:30to 2;40, and 3:30to 5:00. It is suggested that the student bring the ticket with him when appealing. If he really wants to "beat the rap", he should attend the J. D. meetings on Tuesday night after the regular SGA meeting to appeal in person.

Chairman Susan Torczon of the Student Housing Comm. announced that there will be tables set up in the dorms Wednesday and Thursday for a survey. All the students will be asked various questions concerning life in the dorms and their opinions on the subject. Also there will be a table set up in the Student Center during the supper hour to find out why the students living off· campus are doing so. After all the information is compiled, the Housing Comm. will then be able to make recommendations for the improvement of dorm life as a whole.

SGA meetings are held every Tuesday night at 6:00 in the FA room 212. All interested students are urged to attend. The SGA needs the support of the students.

Gl's Make Use Of Veterans Aid

One hundred and five students are enrolled under the Veterans Readjustment Benefits act of 1966 at Peru State College this semester according to figures released by the FinanciaI Aids Office This constitutes around 10 percent of the student body.

The G. I., Bill, as it is more commonly called, provides educational assistance not only to veterans but to children, wives and widows of veterans whose deaths or permanent total disabilities were serviceconnected and wives and children of servicemen missing in action or prisoners of war.

An attempt to compare the percentage of G.I. Bill students at Peru to other schools and the nation as a whole was un· successful. According to C. H. Lieurance, Contact officer at the Veterans Administration Regional Office in Lincoln, percentage counts pf veterans to the total nuniber of college students in the nation is unavailable and, therefore 1 n9 basis for comparison exists.

Lieurance said, however, that the number of students enrolled under the G.I. Bill has steadily increased in the last five years. He said also that the percentage taking advantage of their educational benefits now exceeds both WWII and Korea.

Repair Work Being Done

Have you noticed all the repair work being done on the Peru streets? Much of the credit for what is being done should go to Mr Rex Allgood, mayor of Peru, and Mr Ron Hazard, city engineer, Nebraska

This work is being done unuer a 6-year plan in which Peru receives state aid by fulfilling certain requirements. These include retaining a city engineer who picks the roads he considers the most in need of repair. His suggestions can be set aside if a committee decides certain other roads need work

Between 17 and 20 blocks are paved each year after approval by the city engineer and the street council. Peru is trying for a new paving district in 1972. Some streets have been passed by because of the scheduled work on Highway 67 in the next year.

Hoyt St. is the dividing line between Peru's paving troubles and the college's. Roads within the campus district are maintained by the college.

Traveling in cars, the skie will leave after classes on th 24th of November and ret Sunday, November 28.

Circle K Wants Members

Get involved! That's the attitude the members of the Circle Kclub have taken this year. For those who are unaware of this club or its purposes, the Circle K club is a campus service organization affiliated with Kiwanis club. The Kiwanian principles are fair dealing and the observance of the golden rule.

The Peru chapter of the"Circle Kclub has been active year after year, getting involved. The concession stands at football and basketball games are manned by club members and the proceeds go towards accomplishment of worthwhile goals.

Last )'.ear the local club bought three new benches for the campus and painted the light poles. Among other projects, according to club president Russell Taylor, were the transportation of students from Peru to Auburn to donate blood, sponsorship of Peru's Cub Scout troop and sponsorship of students for the Hunger Hike.

This year's top project so far is getting the Cub Scouts back into operation. Summertime seems to mark a slump in scout activity, Taylor said.

Freshman class officers at Peru State College were elected Wednesday. The new officers and Student Governing Association representatives for the class of 1975 have started plans for their parade float for the 50th annual Homecoming at Nebraska's First College, November 6.

The play covered 60 yards Crouser again threw the ball, but Barry Reynolds was the target of this pass. The extra point was good and the final score was 21-12 in favor of the Griffons.

The Bobcats return home this weekend and will play Kearney State tomorrow night in the Oak Bowl. These two teams have played 53 games against each other and Peru holds the series edge with 27 wins, 24 losses and 2 ties.

To Face Kearney Oct. 16

A big Kearney State College team invades the Peru dtate College team Saturday night in a 7:30 p.m. contest. The game could prove to be one of the more interesting matchups of the season.

The team from Kearney features a big set of lineman plus one of the most heralded freshman of the state. The Peru State defense will be tested by an offensive line averaging well over 220 pounds, while the Bobcat offense will be confronted with a defensive line averaging over 230 pounds. A240 pound fullback by the' familiar name of Tom Kropp will be running at the Bobcat defense.

Kearney State dropped last week's contest to a tough Moorehead, Minn., crew. Dan Fernbacher, who scouted the Kearney State team, was impressed by the size of the team.

Head coach Joe Pelisek hopes his Bobcats can counter the opponent's size with a stepped up aerial attack and a touch rushing defense. Pelisek hopes to establish the running game, but if the air route milst be taken, he will- hope to be successful with short, quick passes.

Pelisek hopes his Peru State team is quick enough to overcome the size difference. Pelisek states his team was in good physical shape for the game, with no injuries.

The Women's Athletic Association sponsors the annual high school invitational volleyball tournament. This year the tournament will be held on November 15, 16, and 17. The competition was previously held in March, but the date was changed because volleyball is now considered a fall sport. P. S.

Every week this becomes more of a chore than enjoyment because as the weeks go by the games get toughter to pick and criticism of my choices still runs high. I won't say that I told you so to all the Texas fans that thought the Longhorns would beat the Sooners but "I told you so.".

The Big Eight conference is one of the toughest in the land and the game that finds. the Colorado Buffaloes traveling to Sooner land does nothing to hurt this image. If there are key games early in the season this is a key game. These two teams should fight it out tooth and nail until the end of the game, a tie would settle nothing. The Buffaloes are hungry for a Sooner Scalp, and the sooners are still gloating over their Texas victory. Both teams will be ready, but I look for Colorado to upset the Big Red from Soonerland.

compliance wit!I' Coach Pelisek that the Bbcats must step the running game of Kearney. When asked about the performance of Kropp, Fernbacher stated the freshman fullback from Aurora impressed him as only "fair." However, the scout qualified that statement by saying·Kropp has great potential, and will probably be used a great deal against Peru State because of the size difference.

Fernbacher was most impressed with the passing attack of Kearney, and especially with the receiving of Sam Frazier, a split receiver. He indicated that Peru State defense could still afford to concentrate solely on defending the rush, because of quite adequate passing attack.

When asked what Peru State should have to do to pull off their first victory of the season, Fernbacher's answer was short and to the point "Stop Kropp".

Chet Nichols Here Oct. 28

Chet Nichols is a person to be reckoned with.

The vibrant, hard chords of his guitar matched with sensual lyrics of our time and pure honest thought made his recent performance at Southwest Missouri State transcend the common place. A senior at Kansas State University, Nichols ended his brief college tour at SMS before going back to school. At Lawrence he has appeared at the PawnShop and the Vanguard, playing and singing his own songs.

Chet Nichols will perform at PSC Coffee House, October 28, at 8 p.m. in the Student Center· Cafeteria.

When asked why all his songs had an aura of melancholy pessimism, Nichols said, "I'm not really pessimistic; actually I'm a very optimistic person. Have you ever had a coach in high school who constantly pressed and badgered you until he ·got you to perform to his standards? That is what I try to do. You can't initiate change by telling sociaty how good it is."

His songs are poignant pieces of truth designed not so much to entertain as they are to convey a new way of life. They ·speak of sorrow and apathy and the plight of the unaware. But just as the countless innovators of a new society, he can offer no solution. He describes it this way: "I know that I don't have the an" swers, but it is obvious that we need a change. With my music I try to make people a little more aware of their situation and maybe do my part in reaching a solution."

His material has been described by the Kansas City Free Press as "somewhat in the same spirit as Joni Mitchell and Leonard Cohen, and his vocal qualities somewhere between Donovan and Tim Buckley." Still, he has a style all his own, an electricity generated to the audience, a quality, with the right breaks, which could send Chet Nichols to the fame that his talen deserves.

The performance will be sponsored by SCB and paid for by the Student Progra.m Fees.

PERU STATE COLLEGE, PERU, NEBRASKA FRIDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1971

PEDITORIAL

While on a little toot to the north country, I overheard Uncle Lunk regaling the family about a farmer who asked his neighbor if he might borrow a rope. "Sorry, I am using my rope to tie up my milk."

"Why, good gravy!" answered the farmer-, "rope can't tie up milk."

"I know," came back the reply, "But when a man doesn't want to do something, one reason is as good as another."

When I returned from the trip I found a quote that read, "When a group declines it is through no mystical limitation of a corporate life, but through the failure of its political or intellectual leaders to meet the challenge of change."

There was something in Uncle Lunk's story and· the quote which stuck in my mind. I began thinking about Lincoln who said,"that you can't fool all the people all the time.'' Then as coincidence thickened and my mind began figuring, I ran into a quote from President Gomon in the 1970-71 Handbook for Peru Staters, "Recognizing the need to be attunedto an ever-changing society, the faculty and staff believe the primary objective of the college is to promote the understanding of rights, privilege,s, and the responsibilities of participation and leadership of all students in a democratic

By now I was on the verge of a coronary thrombosis, when, yes I am afraid to say, another coincidence occured. There before my very eyes was another quote. It read, "Privacy is an essential factor to the mental and physical health of each individual and the groups of which he is a part, as are, freedom of speech, press, and other wellestablished categories of freedom."

Yes, by now I knew it was a lucky day; then suddenly it all made sense. The first qlrote I saw on returning, Uncle Lunk's story, Lincoln, President Gomon, and the quote on liberties. .and room inspection?

What made sense to me, I am not at liberty to say, indeed my powers seem under a cloud; but I am sure it must all have some consistency.

Parents Day Held

Parents Day activities were held on the Peru State camptls Saturday, October 16. Saturday afternoon, Mr and Mrs Jack McKelvey of Falls City were selected "Parents of the Year." Their son, Bob, is a sophomore at PSC and a member of the football team. ·

The parents that had traveled the greatest distance for the event were Mr and Mrs William Jubinville of Granby, Massachusetts. Their son, Dave, is a freshman at PSC.

New Hours Not Used

The Peru State College Library, with the couragement of the SGA has changed their hours for a trial period of one month. Sunday through Thursday the closing time has been extended one half hour to 10:00 p.m. The time the library is open on Saturday has been changed from the morning to the afternoon, with the hours being from 2:00p.m. to 5:00 p.m.

hours on Saturday gives thi. ·! ite riser a chance to catch-up O'i his sleep. ·

Art works by Pat Cook are being presented in the Diddel Exhibition Court of the fine arts building.

It was thought by the SGA and the Library that the additional half hour during the week would be used more readily by the students. But according .to Mrs Faye Brandt, Librarian at the College Library, on one night at·· closing there were only three students· at closing and on another night there were only six students in the library at closing. According to Mrs Brandt, if more students do not use the later closing hours, the hours will be changed back to their original times.

ZERO .PREDICTS

Football is a funny game and. each ,week the games get tougher and tougher. The ball bounces one way or the other and if it bounces the right way it makes the football predictor a wise person. If it bounces the· other way it makes him the guy that knows nothing. Last week Zero had success in the prediction field so here we go for some more punishment.

First of all let's look at the action on the state college scene

The Peru State Bobcats travel to the west part of the state to play the Chadron State Eagles. Peru was impressive in their loss to Kearney. The Bobcats almost beat the Antelopes. I really don't know much about the Eagles, except they are not as touch as they have been in past years. The· Peru team is hungry and this could be the week they taste the long awaited victory.

This was their fourth win in dual meets, they have only lost one dual meet this year that was against N.W.M.S.C., whom they later.

The Peru State Bobcats e:ave the State Antelo_pes all they wanted before bowing by the score of 28·14. Although defeated the Peru team put on one of their most impressive performances of the year, and should be ct>mmended for a very good job. Given little chance to win the ball game by the experts the Peru team almost put the predictors in their graves when they established an early lead and had Kearney on the ropes most of the first half. For those football fans who came to the game to see Mr !!'om Kropp do his thing, they got what they wanted. Kfopp's forte is not running around people, but instead he runs over them, and when he gets in the open field he tough for one man to bring down. The most effective play for Kropp in the Peru game was the screen pass. He caught two, one in the first half thal led to the Kearney touchdown with only 11 seconds left in the first half. In the Peru game Kropp was used as a decoy and a blocker. Many of his bone crushing blocks sprung John and Ra11dY Hraban for long gamers.. ·

head coach Al Zikumnd said the Bobcats would," like nothing better than to knock us·oft.'' This ·statement became reality on the very first Peru possession of the ball. The Kropp kickoff went through the endzone and Peru had the ball on their 20 yar· dline. The big gainer came on what looked like a busted play. Criger went back to pass and couldn't find a receiver so he started down field and with the help of some key blocks gained yardage deep into Kearney territory. The Peru TD came then on a 16 yard pass play that went from quarterback Criger to end Steve Miller. Dan Cotton's kick was good and the Bobcats had a surprising 7-0 lead. Kearney knew that they were in a ball game. The first quarter came to a close with Peru 4olding their slim lead. The

scoring in the second quarter belonged to Kearney. Their first score came on a quarterback keeper by Scott Maline. The Kearney player scored on a four year run, Greg Cheng's kick was good and that tied the game at 7·

11 second left in the half. The key play in this drive was the screen pass to Kropp. The TD came on a

The -foot-tall grandfather clock, gift to the college from the ss of 1903, has at various es been the subject of ysteries and newspaper ars. e story begins in 1963 when library was remodeled and e old clock was moved. mewhere. The library odeling was finished and rything became as it had Everything except the k. The ancient timepiece not in the library but the oblem was that nobody knew at it wasn't.

The next phase of the story cerns Don Carlile, director of ecial Serivces. He was aking up a #-t of gifts to the

college in the fall of 1969 and ran across the gift of the clock. It wasn't in the library but where was it. An investigation and search revealed that the clock had been sitting in an old college storage house for the past six years.

The years had seemed to detract little except for the base.

Bobbie Fike, a carpenter for the Building and Grounds department rebuilt the base and the clock started running without further work. It sat in the Special Services office until October 20.

On that date the grandfather clock was moved back into the library. It was a lot of activity for a clock that old, but now its over. Maybe. What can possibly happen now?

The theme "Happiness Is. " was carried throughout the program. Mrs Edith Gunlicks, Kearney State,College Business Instructor was the Guest Speaker of the morning. Mrs Gunlicks' address "Smile" emphasized the importance of a smile in the daily work of an educational secretary and how much it can mean in keeping the four main elements of her working world - boss, students, co-workers, and of course, herself - happy. She stressed that students wish to be dealt with speed, directness, honesty, and fairness and that they are quick to spot phoniness.

After a film, "File It Right and Find It" and a noon luncheon at the Nebraskan, the workshop resumed in the Recital Hall of the KSC Fine Arts Building. Dr. Gary OlsOl\', Kearney State

College Vice-President, addressed the group on "Happiness is Being a Person. He stressed the idea that every person should be considered as, and treated as, a PERSON - an individual who is allowed to live to his full potential. and is not discriminated against because of his race, color, creed or sex. Entertainment was by the Kearney High School "Personifications". Mrs Lois Lawhead, Bissell's Decorating Studio, spoke on "Office and Home Decorating."

Attending the Workshop were Gerry Brady (1971 President, Peru State Secretaries Association), Thelma Grafton, Lois Smith, Myrna Sierks, Maryanna Gnade, Cheryl Lemon, Ferne Stephens, Caryll Ubben, and Charlene Vickers.

A message for all - administration, students, and staff - was brought back to Peru State "A smile is not good untit you have shared it."

Glen Hunter Interviewed

BY FRANK D' ADDESA

Q. Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?

A. I sure do.

Q. State your name?

A. Mr Glen Hunter.

Q. Your occupation?

A. Food Service Manager at Peru State.

Q. What is your function?

A. I'm in charge of all food operations at Peru.

Q. Does your job include making up the menus?

A. Yes, I work with dietitians to determine the food served.

Q. What do you consider when you make.up a menu?

A. Variety, well balanced menu, and the cost of the food are factors involved.

Q. Did you ever taste one of your meals?

A. Yes.

Q. What did you think of it?

A. I think the food .served is pretty good. I eat it often and I don't eat something I don't like.

Q. Do you think your food could use any improvement?

A. I think the food is just as good as the food served at other colleges. The $8.25 a week the student is paying now is the same price that was paid in 1968.

Q. Is it true you soybeans as a filler in much of your food?

A. We use General Mills Bontrae, a soybean meal,a meat substitute in our ground beef recipes such as hamburgers and meatloaf.

Q. Why is this substitute used?

A. Because it can be better preserved, it has about the same amount of protein as meat, is cheaper then meat, and doesn't contain so much colestriol.

Q. Are there any other substitutes put into your food?

A. No, only some powdered milk is used in some of our cooking.

Q. Do you think the student is getting his money's worth?

A. Definitely, a student can eat and drink all he wants during a meal and is only restricted to one piece of meat at dinner.

Q. What is done with the leftover food?

A. Sometimes wer serve the food again. But if we do the student still gets a choice of two other meals. After food is served for the second time we throw it away.

Q. Do you feel the student body is satisfied with what we serve.

A I think - the majority of students are satisfied with what we serve.

Q. How do you account for all the food left on the plates?

A. Some students don't care about waste. They feel since they're paying for the food they can waste it.

Q. What can a person do if he is dissatisfied with your food?

A. I wish he would come to me with his complaint and offer a logical solution along with it. I'll be happy to listen to any ideas on how the food system can be improved. Thank You. --.

Hoemann Returns To PSC

Although receiving his degree in business administration last May, Gary Hoemann did not leave campus.

Employed by - the Peru Achievement Foundation, an organization which "aids in areas not covered by legislative apportionment," he now answers inquiries about Peru, visits individual high schools and college nights and encourages prospective students to visit campus.

His duties were formerly distributed among the faculty and administration, but he provides the college with more. extensive promotion and contact with prospective students. This

This summer he traveled in Nebraska and Iowa, contacting students who had inquired but had not applied for adrnj.ssion to Peru. He plans more extensive travel this fall around Nebraska, hoping to follow each appeal with another visit in the spring wheri students are completing their college plans.

Mr Hoemann noted that "students can do a much better job of promoting the college" andhe is optimistic about Peru's future. Certainly his work is important to that future and deserves the support of the student body.

Last week we printed a picture and story on the new library hours. The story stated the possibility that the library would no longer be open to the extended hours. After taJj{ing to Mrs Brandt, head librarian, I found that the library has no intentions of stopping the extended hours. The cases of very few people using the library during the new hours ·were true the first couple of weeks the new hours were in effect. Now the people using the library during the new hours is increasing, and toward the ;end of the semester, when term papers are due and finals roll around an even larger number of people will take advantage of the new hours. According to Mrs Brandt, the library is satisfied with the new hours, and have no intentions of closing earlier.

PSC Tells "What Is Love"

An age old wondering of people is, "What is Love?" In response to this query, PSC student and faculty, gave these replies:

Love is being willing to go to any necessary limits to sacrifice your own welfare for that of someone else.

Getting in at 1:30 in the. morning!

Love is the undefinable source that rules mankind, guiwng him from the depths of despair to the heights of the gods.

Love is sharing, giving; a very personal kind of feeling not really expressable in words. It is a reason to live, to shine, and be beautiful.

Love is someone to keep your feet warm on a cold winter night.

Love is opposite of hate.

Love is that feeling between two people, wherein an atmostphere is created so that the one loved can best fulfill himself.

Love is being super ugly and "catching a man."

Love is rare.

It's a four-letter word that rrteans something that is unexplainable.

For the lack of a better word, people use love to express their personal, pleasurable feelings.

That which is, that could not be, with someone else.

Clarinda to do Halftime Show

The featured high school band for the game between Peru and Wayne State on October 30 will be the Clarinda High band directed by Richard Mowery.

The Clarinda band, including about 65 members, has received a first rating in Class A in several band contests in Iowa. At Iowa State University last spring and at Mount Ayre this fall, Clarinda received a first rating. · One outstanding characteristic of the Clairinda band is a group of girls who perform on the Holland hand bells. Several of the band's. movements are executed to the music of these bells.

This is Clarinda'.s third performance at Peru State College, the band last appeared here three years

Will The End Come?

Will The World Come To An End? Many people are concerned about the frequent predictions of doomsayers. Of course, in our time; as never_ before, we face the reality of factors which possibly could deliver us into such a crisis. Today we have to face the awful truth that mankind can and may cause the extinction of life on the earth by various means. There is the inevitable population explosion problem. There is the pollution - ecology problem. There is the hideous reality of atomic warfare, germ-warfare,and even the fantastic crime wave - killing lives uselessly. But let me answer the question: Will the world come to an end?

First of all, I must say that the Bible does teach that this world will experience a purging by fire. mPeter 3:7) Secondly, the Bible also teaches that there will be a new heaven and a new earth. (Revelation 21:1-5) However, probably the main event does not concern people so much as the nearness of it! We are naturally sel£ish and tend to defend our own welfare first. Are we near the end? The Bible gives many clues about the nature of the end time, or "last days" as the Bible calls it. One item mentioned in II Peter 3:3-4 is that people will be denying that Christ will return to earth. We see this and hear it on every hand today! Certainly, II Timothy 3:1-7 is significant in the naming of the characteristics of the '1ast days"! The first verse of this passage saysthat the "last days" Will be "perilous". Do I need to mention the peril of our times, when the news-stands are loaded with ugly stories of violence, bloodshed, and horrendous acts of men? But, the most interesting thing about last times to me is that Jesus Christ is going to return for His Own just

before a time of Great Tribulation! Therefore, the most vital question we need to face is not about the end of the world, but about whether we are "His Own"! The issue is not denomination, not a creed, not a method, not the end commandments, not'-· church membership, not even the golden rule or living a good life! The issue is receiving Jesus Christ! (John 1: 12) The issue is a person Jesus, God in flesh, who died, shedding His blood for our sin! His GIFT is Eternal Life .it cannot be earned, and no one deserves it! But He wants everyone to have it! (John 3:16)

ZERO

When the football bounces right the games go the way the predictor picks them, when it bounces the other way there are more wrong than right. Last week the ball bounced wrong and Zero had his worst week of the year, but he is back for more punishment.

On the state college scene there are many key games. In the game .at the Oak Bowl the Bobcats take on a tough team from Wayne State. Last week while Peru was losing to Chadron, Wayne defeated the tough team from Kearney and now has the inside track on the conference championship. The only thing standiing in their way is Peru. The Bobcatshave looked good at times and not so good at other times they have been inconsistent. A team can't play this way and expect to wih the close games. Errors tend to hurt a team effort. Wayne should win this ball game with little trouble.

The Peru Achievement Foundation funds come almost solely from past students. This funding has shown loyal support for Peru State College. The purpose of the Foundation, as stated upon its organization in 195.5, is to provide dollar-support for PSC that is not supplied by legislation.

The foundation is_ especially active in providing scholarships for students. Scholarships amounting to $4,825 were provided for the 1971 fall semester, while $4,444 was supplied in matching funds for the National Defense Student Loan Program. The Foundation has provided all the matching funds for the NDSL program since 1958.

The vending committee was formed as an investment to help

active in the Dramatic Club, social committee, PERUVIAN, Beta Beta Beta, Gamma Chi, and Peru Players Sponsor. Margery was elected on her good sportmanship, as a humorist, and as an outstanding actress. She was said to be a ''collegiate figure in reds and golds and plaids."

Queen o' the Ball on Homecoming Night 1940, was Elvera Schacht. Elvera was a senior, majoring in Commerce, and active in Commerce Club, Gamma Chi, PERUVIAN, YMCA, and WAA. ·

In 1951, MariQ.n Pratt, whose daughter MiriJJ.ID is now

the Foundation carry out more of its objectives. Vending machines supply the money for · the dorm scholarships awarded each spring by the dorm councils. This year during the spring of 1972 these dorm scholarships will be known as the A. V. Larson Memorial Vending Scholarships in memory of A. V. Larson who served as the Foundations. Treasurer from 1962 until his death in February 1971.

This generosity of Peru's alumni is a tremendous benefit to present PSC students. Diane Special Services

attending Peru State from California, was crowned as Homecoming Queen. Marion was a senior, majoring in English, and active in Home Economics Club, YMCA, White Angels, International Relations Club, and was a May Fete Attendant. She was also a Who's Who Student.

In 1961, Queen Lee Christen reigned supreme. Lee was a senior, majoring in physical education. Her activities included Kappa Delta Pi, Newman Club, Student National, Home · Economics Club, White Angels, a singer, and a cheerleader.

In 1970, Vicki Hall. was an" nounr.P.d HomP.r.omim! Queen on Saturday, October 24, 1970, during the half-time show. She was the 31st Queen to be chosen.

Vicki was a junior, majoring in physical education, and her activities included cheerleading, holding class offices. being an active debater, and playing for Peru State Colleges girls basketball team. Vicki represented Majors Hall.

The stules that these Queens wore, vary greatly but yet are similar in many ways. -All the Queens hair styles·· were very short, bobbed, with a lot of curl in the early years to the lose curl of Vicki Hall's. The dresses were ·formals, to suits, back to formals, and now anything is acceptable.

Loo1tirrg back at these Queens of earlier years, one might think they look out of place, but then as now it was probably one of the most exciting nights in their · lives.

President's 20th Year

Dr. Neal S. Gomon is serving his twentieth year as President of Peru State.

Following graduation from Albion High School in 1926, he attended the University of Nebraska where he received his · Bachelor of Arts in Journalism in 1926, his· Masters in School Admfuistration in 1945, and his Doctorate in Education in 1954.

Dr. Gomon worked on the Lincoln Star for three years, became assistant instructor of journalism at Omaha Univel'$ity and served as Superintendent of Schools at Niobrara, Alvo, and Wymore. He acted as field representative for the Nebraska State Education Association from 1947-1950.

Dr. Gomon arrived in Peru and served as Director of LanguageArts in 1950-51. He became president in June of 1951.

Marshall,.· said the SCB will prejudge the floats before the parade. After the parade the top three floats will be parked at the south end of the Oak Bowl, while the rest will be on the north side of the practice field.

Winners of the marching band contest and the football contest will be announced during halftime activities of the PeruCulver - Stockton game. The Peru Chamber of Commerce donates the four trophies for the bands and the SCB is providing the cash prizes for the float competition.

SCB again this sponsored the window painting contest for any organization wishing to participate.

Seven windows have been entered along with one contributed by the grade school. SGA and SCB also have displays but theirs are not eligible for judging.

The judging was held November 4, at 10:30 a.m., by judges Mrs Marianna Gnade, Mrs Anita Gaines, and Mr Leland Sherwood. Prizes of $15 - $10 - $5 will be awarded for first, second, third place.

Peru Woman's Club sponsored the activity and they urged the people of Peru to contribute their time and effort. A landscape artist was also hired to guide the committee in beautifying the land.

Approximately four-hundred people attended the dedication service&. of the Laura Neal Memorial Park in Peru on Sunday, April 21, 1935. Mrs G. H. Joder presented the deed to Mayor W. T. Warman. Music for the occasion was provided by the Peru Training School Band.

Today, the citizens of Peru, the college students, and visitors to Peru can still appreciate the generosity of the Neal family in donating this memorial gift and the enthusiasm exhibited by the townspeople of Peru in malting Neal Park such a lovely place to see and visit.

Solved

Last week I wrote a letter to the editor of the Ped. I asked a simple question. I hereby admit to being the author. Upon reading my own question, I doubted its validity. However, I think I may have stumbled upon a possible answer why a student should hesitate to sign his name to an editorial.

Teacher Education

Peru is a campus where an estimated 75 per cent of all students intend to enter the field of education, the admittance to teacher education can easily produce a strangle hold of power. So it would appear at Peru.

While investigating this aspect of college liie I interviewed several students and instructors. All agreed to the point that the threat of refusal to admittance to teacher education is a great club over the heads of students. The threat of four years of college witho,ut an education , degree is not easily dismissed. Yet, the most incredible concept behind this fear seems to be not based on academic performance.

The Teacher Education Committee makes the decision about who is accepted into teacher edu.c:ation. However, there seems to be a good deal of controversy on the basis of how this decision is reached. Sexual -morals, parties, housemother recommendations, length and stYie of hair ,.or growth of human hair upon the face may be deciding factors in your acceptance or to teacher education. Heresay evidence is excluded from legal jurisdiction in our court system; however a committee is not run under the same guidelines.

One of the students I talked to was a senior girl who had just gotten word that she would not be admitted to teacher education. I asked her what she intended to do'. She said that she would finish the semester, then quit. It seems - as though she really wanted to teach. Her only· comment was "Well, I'm glad they told me after four years instead of six," The excuse she was given for her rejection was that she had been put on social probation as a freshmen (too much noise in someones' opinion on a Satlirday night), and an unfavorable recommendation by her ho.usemother. These are the reasons for three and a half years.of a young girls life to be virtually wasted.

And should the questions arise, "Where are your facts, what proof do;you have?" about these accusations about the committee of moral entrepreneurs, all I can say is ask an upperclassmen. Ask your instructor or advisor and closely watch the answer. Or perhaps if you're wise, you'll not question anyone. Study hard, take the right courses, - and keep yourself out of all controversy and scandal. And when your turn comes, provided your grades are of the proper calibre, your admittance to teacher education should be swift and gracious. And after your professional semester, you shall be ready to step into the harsh world of education. For after the years 9f being correspondent to commands, and subject to autocratic rule, you will easily fit into the mold of your future educational employer. For this seems to be the classic type of graduate Peru State College appears to be so adept at producing.

Uncle Lunk got back from a toot to the north country and was talkin' about how it was a smart thing not signin' a name to an editorial. He says that, "Kids should be seen and not heard, but that when a kid is heard he shouldn't be seen." I finally figured out what he was saying, so I decided that if I sign my name I'd drop: out of teacher education Looks like we're finally go in' to get a radio station at Peru.A Tip o' the Tam this week to Dr. Barrett who worked hard at setting it up, the word is that it will be cabled to the dorms second semester. .Overheard a parent last year at Homecoming telling of a poor father who worked hard all his life to keep the wolf from the door, and then his daughter brought one home. .Spotted my first flow of Canadian geese winging their way southward last Sundav -A:oparently Mr. Kosygin isn't the only one who found things a mite cool up Canada way A coffeehouse is being tried by Rev.

They never pushed me. If I wanted to retrieve, shake hands, or roll over, it was entirely up to me.

Room Inspection Why?

The idea of all· men being secure in the possessions and effects from unreasonable searches and seizures is a great concept. Unfortunately, like so many other democratic reforms, it does not exist at Peru. For it specifically states in the room contract that the college may "inspect" your room at any time. It would appear that the college intends to exercise this privilige whenever it feels it necessary.

In the midst of all this, a poll was taken to determine why offcampus students prefer to live off campus. To paraphase one student, who's answer quoted would be unprintable, 'Are you kidding, 1984 is a good book, but I wouldn't want to live there.' It appears that off-campus residents are not subjected to the same type of jurisdiction as dorm residents.

It may be brought up that alcohol in ones' posession on state property is a crime: Indeed this is true; yet by our student agreement, posession of alcohol in off-campus housing is illegal too, regardless of the age of the resident.

Let us not forget certain other rules regarding student behavior that are set upon us. Such

apartment, coed parties possession of explosives, etc: THESE RULES SEEM TO BE IGNOREP BY BOTH STUDENTS AND ADMINISTRATIION, (unless of course one intends to ,enter teacher education). Why?

As the saying goes, old traditions die hard. In the true style of a journalist, I have many questions and few answers. The hardest question to answer is one raised by a member of the faculty. "Why do the students put up with that kind of crap?" THAT I cannot answer. Success does not lie in rebellion, but moreover in a rational reviewing of the facts. If an institution trusts you enough to enroll and carry its' name, if it grants you admittance to its residence halls, then logically it should have enough trust in you to allow you to run your life as an adult, for that is a big part of college.

To those of you that will read this and shake your head and decry that what is, is and shall be, all I can say would be "I'm sorry, for somewhere alc>ng the line, you missed out." At the same time I must ponder; for with such. an attitude among many people, "thought-crime" is just a step away.

Students DigA· t .. par ments

Some Peru State students have become discontent over dormitory living. Some of these students when they are able become student apartment dwellers, move off campus.

Interviews with Peru State students, reveal a variety of opinions on apartment living.

9ne Earl

Brown spent his first year at Peru State living in Majors Hall. The senior has spent the rest of his college life off campus. Why live off campus? Brown says it is ·cheaper.

A6-6 senior basketball player, Brown claims, "Off campus living is actually cheaper than dormitory living. The main saving is in groceries, where I can eat decent for a couple of bucks a day. Also, there's a great deal more privacy. I can talk on the phone whenever I wish, watch my choice of T. V. programs, and hit the sack anytime I please."

Brown, who lives with two other men in ''The Trailer," comments on his social life. "A guy cari really have a lot of fun if he gets with the right guys."

However Brown is the first one to admit that apartment life is no

bed of "The rent and b' hit you every month", dejectedly stated", and I alwa have to hassle arotind to keep payments".

In s·ummarizing his o camplis,Iiving, Brown states, ' enjoy off campus living a gr deal more than I did the d mitories. I've achieved manh and responsibility from living "The Trailer".

EDITORIAL COMMENT

Today the festivities for Peru State College's 50th Anniversary Homecoming begin. TONIGHT "The Bells" will be in concert in the College Auditorium. Saturday is the big day, starting with the parade, then alumni teas, the Peru-culver-Stockton football game with the crowning of the queen during halftime, the Homecoming Play (The Tempest), and the Homecoming Dance, with the "Elastic Band,'' ends the day's activities.

Yet even with a full weekend's activities planned, I have heard students talk of going borne this weekend. Students are always complaining about the fact that there is nothing to do on weekends in Peru, and then when a big weekend of activities is planned, they go home.

Homecoming is one of the biggest events of the year, so we should try to have 100 percent student involvement. We will have many alumni, friends, and visitors on our campus this weekend, so let's try and show them a lot of student involvement on campus.

Let's show the alumni that their old alma mater is not withering on the vine, that we are keeping the tradition of Peru State College alive.

If you're nlanning on going home this weekend, why not change your mind and stay for a weekend? Who knows, you might have some fun.

IN SHADOWS OF-TIME

Never taking time to wonder about

The endless time I had wasted away.

Endless time, spent on nothing; Spent on nothing, in a nothing life.

Then, when haunting dreams unfold, I became, not nearly so big and bold. Still never taking time to wonder about

The endless time I had wasted away; I wandered nearer to time eternal.

Chasing a lonely shadow of death eternal; Along many well-traveled paths of time.

Time, dreams, eternity, shadows, me. Stop, look, listen, shadows, me.

KEN'S

PERU PEDAGOGIAN

9 Wks. Grades-?

The downhill wind of the fall semester has begun. Midterm grades were eliminated this year and replaced by "down slips'', if a student has a "3" average or below in a course. · Students seem to be divided into two categories, those who bring their grades up after midterm, and those who and lower them. It will prove interesting whether the new system functions as a positive innovator or simply as a stigma.

Who's Who On Campus from where

THE ON CAMPUS ENROLLMENT AT Peru State College for the fall semester of this current year is· 1001 students. (Each studentminus one - can now claim his own oak tree.) Off-campus class enrollments for the semester have not been determined at this time.

The student enrollment breakdown according to classification is as follows: (Last years enrollment figures are in parenthesis for comparis?n.)

Freshmen 305 (329)

Sophomores 217 (260)

Juniors 231 (241)

Seniors 227 ( 250)

PostGrads 21 ( 39)

The freshmen class breakdown shows 204 first time freshmen, 26 transfer students and 70 ' returning students of freshmen classification.

The total on-campus enrollment shows 392 women and 609 men. This is an approximate ratio of 2 to 3. ,Twenty-four percent of the students are classified as nonresidents or students who reside outside of the State of Nebraska. Students from the State of Iowa comprise the largest percentage of the non-resident enrollment.

The twenty-four percent figure is consistent with previous first semester non-resident enrollments at Peru State.

Sixty-seven transfer students are new to our campus this fall. These students come to Peru State from Thirty-four colleges and universities throughout the United States. The largest percentage of transfer students come from the two-year community or junior colleges. The largest single group from one institution is represented by Iowa Western Community College located at Clarinda, Iowa. Approximately twentyfive percent of the total student body at Peru State have transfered from other institutions of higher education. This is consistent with last falls enrollment and the national average of all colleges. It is assumed that transfer figures will continue to increase across the nation as more-and-more two year institutions are springing into existence.

Letter To The Editor

We found the article in the October 15 Pedagogian entitled "Married Life vs College Life" by Mary (Vandeloo) Brook$ puzzling. WE hope the ideas set forth are not typical of married college women.

First she stated "As a wife I have to perform certain duties such as cleaning the house, fixing meals, washing dishes and doing laundry." We would like to know does it have to be this way? One sex 1s no better at performing these duting than the other. So why must people assume that these roles are predetermined and eternal?

Next she said, "Once we graduate it will all be over. He'll have his job and I'll be a housewife " As if suddenly her life has ended - from henceforth she'll be known as a housewife with no identity of her own. It is sad when anyone continues to accept traditional roles than inhibit their personalities and potentialities. Women are not born into this world to be housewives. Society should not stereo type people or groups of people, for everyone is a human being and should have an identity of their own.

THE BELLS Have A

''The Bells'' Perform For PSC Concert

The Bells, an internationally known group will be performing at PSC's Homecoming Concert. If one word can be used to describe the vibrations aroused by The Bells, that word would be COMMUNICATION. One has only to see the group perform once to understand this description. Their handclapping, free-wheeling style has ignited their audiences all across the country.

In 1970, The Bells recorded their first international hit single "Fly Little White Dove, Fly". This song was the number one record in Canada and was chartered in Cashbox, Billboard, and Record World. Their first albtun released at Christmas of 1970 included their popular hit "Stay Awhile". So far, "Stay Awhile" has earned The Bells a gold single in Canada and has established them in the United Statei; as the recording find of the year.

Cliff Edwards, the leader of the group is a jack of all trades who has mastered quite a few. As producer of the group's records, his faith in his partners has been well vindicated. As leader of the group, their faith in him shines through all of their performances.

Jacki Ralph, the only girl in the group, is a tender, softspoken blonde beauty from Surrey, England. Her special delivery of soft, love lyrics is the outstanding factor in her performance

Doug Gravelle, the group's drummer, has been the musical backbone of the group for many years. Charlie Clark and Mike Waye, both from St John, New Brunswick, joined the group a year ago and have made significant contributions tO the group 1s sound.

The most recent member of

the group is Denny Will. Denny's booming voice and heavy piano has been a real asset to the group's performance.

All in all, The Bells add up to a total entertainment packagean act that should not be missed.

Warm up for The Bells concert will feature Mike McGinnis, a 27 year old Irish singer and composer. For two years, Mike was a member of the New Christy Minstrels and eventually became musicial director of that group. His music is mainly folk music concerning love. He says, "To achieve peace, we must find contentment - love."

"We have to get back to nature," he explains. That selfimposed mandate also explains a great deal of Mike McGinnis' music.

The Homecoming Concert will be held Friday, November 5 at 8 p.m. in the College Auditorium. PSC students are admitted free with their I.D. Admission for non-students is $2, but if accompanied by a PSC student with an I.D. the cost is $1. The program is paid for by Student Program Fees, and sponsored by the Student Center Board.

Delzell Hall was dedicated in honor of W. N. Delzell. This "congenial, red-haired Irishman" was a Peru graduate and later a respected and loved Dean of Men.

1965 was the first year Peru passed the 1000-mark in enrollment. That year 1041 students registered for the fall semester.

Peru was the first college in Nebraska to offer fulltime student teaching for nine weeks to its elementary teaching candidates.

Peru was named by some of the first settlers who arrived here from Peru, Illinois.

Happy Day

The "Elastic Band", a group from Lincoln, will play at the Homecoming Dance, Saturday at 9:30 in the gym. The dance will end the activities for PSC 1 s 50th Anniversary Homecoming.

Peru Grows Up

The story of the beginning and growth of Peru, the small village to the city and college town is not ·as full of excitement as one might think. According to Donald Stanley, local lawyer and one who probably knows more about the history of Peru then anyone around, the story of Peru is one of an almost unnoticeable beginning and the slow envolvement from there.

In 1859 President James Buchanan made a land grant to the Territory of Nebraska. Five years before this the first land transfers appeared on paper in the Peru locality. The Buchanan land grant did not include Peru,. rather it forced the territory to accept Peru as a fait accompli. Peru really was not born it was roerely recognized.

When the territory became a state in 1967, Peru had to conform to state statutes concerning villages. Today most of these documents are kept ·at the county seat in Auburn.

In 1928, with the automobile and other modern inventions becoming common around Peru, the village board evidently decided it was time to form ordinances to regulate their use. At least they decided it was time to put rules down in black and white and make them official.

The oldest ordinances date from July 16, 1928 and the following are selected from Volume I, Ordinance Record, Municipal Code, Village of Peru: It was unlawful to allow animals and fowls to run at large. Because of the seriousness of the matter, it was separately unlawful to allow female dogs 'in heat' to run at large. There was a fine of $20 levied on offenders.

To provide for regulation of the automobile, the first traffic laws appeared on July 16, 1928.

For sanitary reasons (or reasons unknown) all toilets "must be constructed wholly of

stone, well burned brick, terra cotta, concrete or equivalent incombustible material."

For general public safety, it was unlawful to discharge a rock ·· with a sling shot within city limits.

For protection of the public morals, prostitution cost an offender between $10 and $100 for every offense.

Finally, perhaps to show that Peru was a village of tasteful and properly bred people, it was unlawful to "expectorate" on any sidewalk, window or door.

Something exciting and fantastic is occuring on the PSC campus for Homecoming this year. After being buried in the shadows for years, William Shakespeare is reappearing as a living, breathing happening. The PSC theatre group, under the direction of Randy Bolton, is presenting Shakespeare's The Tempest on stage.

The Tempest, a culmination of Shakespeare's works, brings together all the joy, grief, celebration, greed and brutality of humanity. To do this, portrays a variety of characters ranging from kings and princes to jesters and slaves. In short, the play is a history of the world presented in

two hours.

Because The Tempest is such a great play, the actors themselves must work hard to portray it at its finest. A series of warm-up exercises is done each night before rehearsal to rid the actors of tension and get them in the mood of the play. Afew of the warm-!IPS done are diaphragm exercises, sensitivity exercises and impromptu stints. One can see that although putting on a play can be fun and exciting, it is also a lot of work requiring the time and patience of everyone involved.

Bolton and the drama group are trying to combat the mistaken idea that Shakespeare is stuffy and virtually impossible to understand or enjoy. It can be seen in the play that

Shakespeare wrote for all people, past and present. Many of the same questions that were asked during his time, such as, "Do we know too much?" "Are we becoming inhumane?" are still being asked today. This play makes an attempt to answer these questions. It isn't necessary to know a lot about Shakespeare to understand The Tempest. All it takes is an understanding of the emotions felt by all human beings.

The Tempest was presented Wednesday and Thursday nights and will be presented tomorrow night at 7:30 p.m. in the college auditorium. Be a part of the unique experience of seeing and enjoying Shakespeare live again, at his best!

Nine Profs, Peru Alumni

Nine professors on the teaching staff at Peru State College are also alumni of the college.

D. V. Jarvis, Associate Professor of Industrial Arts, joined the staff in 1948. He did not leave Peru after his graduation, in fact he taught 18 hours and carried 12 hours during his last semester. This all came about when instructor Harvey Ritter had'a heart attack and was unable to return to his duties. The President asked Jarvis to take ·the teaching position at the college and he .has never left it. He feels the "students are individuals, and the faculty are dedicated" at PSC.

In 1951 another alumnus, Harold Johnson, Associate Professor of Education and Director of Placement joined the teaching ranks at Peru. In the 25 years before his return, he taught at all .levels in public schools. He prefers the "small town where you know your neighbor on a first name basis," so when he had the opportunity to be a supervisory teacher at the laboratory school on Peru's camput, he took it. When the placement director resigned with a weeks notice, the Presidjmt asked Johnson if he would'take over. Since he "knew

so many school people in Nebraska" which could be "good connections for Peru graduates" he took the position. Two alumni returned to teach at their alma mater in 1956. Jack Mcintire, Assistant Professor of Physical Education, Head Cross Country, Basketball and Track Coach, returned mainly because his former coach, Al Wheeler. asked him. Also, because he felt< taem and still feels"that the school has a lot of promise. Lester Russell, Professor of Industrial Arts, returned to work under A. V. Larson, then Head of the Practical Arts Division. He also returned because "Peru State College has a reputation for good teachers and particularily so in the Industrial Arts Department" and he wanted to be a part of the teaching team.

In 1955, the next alumnus joined the staff. .Mrs Louise Kregel, Assistant Professor of Home Economics, came because the position at the college was a chance for advancement and a challenge. She said she "enjoys working with young people. She also likes Peru because the teachers can really come to know their students, who aren't just a number."

It was 1960, some five years

since an alumnus had returned, that Mrs Faye Brandt, Librarian and Associate Professor of Library Science returned to Peru. She had a "soft spot in her heart" for the school and also felt it had an excellent academic program. She wanted to do her part in teaching students who would become more of the "fine teachers from Peru."

In 1963 Leland Sherwood, Associate Professor of Art, returned to the college. It was a chance for him to move from high school to college level and also a chance to live in the state where he grew up. He likes Peru's location: "close to large cities and yet with a rural atmosphere." He also likes the ''conservative midwestern philosophy on life" so much like his own.

Two alumni joined the teaching ranks in 1965. Clyde J Barrett, Head of the Humanities Division and Associate Professor of English, feels that there is a "tendency to return to the area you call home." He had always taught in the midwest, never father west than Colorado, east than Arkansas or north than Nebraska. He likes the scenery around Peru and enjoys camping and hiking in it. He also likes the small college atmosphere because you "get

acquainted with the students." Miss Bonnie Rutz, Assistant Professor of Physical Education, says she felt a "deep loyalty to the school" and she had "good times and good friends" here cluring her undergraduate days. She likes the fact that "everywhere you travel you find a Peruvian or someone who knows one."

The existing Peru State Student Center building was opened in 1961.

On Memorial Day of 1918 a Soldier's Memorial was erected on Cemetery Hill to commemmorate the Peru men who gave their lives for their country in World War I.

The first Principal of the Peru State Normal School had a salary of $1500 and the Preceptress of $800.

The only resources 0£ the Peru State Normal School at its beginning were tuition, incident8Is and room rent. A dollar and one-half was charged for incidental expenses and four dollars per term for room rent.

Silver Dome Revealed

Looming high above the science building is an inconspiCuous silver dome, probably the function of which is unknown. Flash-this silver dome is the college observatory!

Many enjoy the Cemetery Walk.

emetery Walk Bears Signatures

If you've ever walked on the right side of California Street toward the Mount Vernon Cemetery you've noticed that ;the sidewalk bears the names of different people, businesses, and organizations.

· In 1919, the people of Peru decided to pave a sidewalk to the cemetery since the Soldiers' -· Memorial Trail could not be used when it was wet. The • Cemetery committee decided to raise money for the construction by letting the people buy a 4 foot block for $10 each. In this block their names, businesses, or organizations could be engraved. Some of the donators

·were: Barnes ·Pharmacy, the Neal Family, Peru State Bank, and the Sophomore, Junior, and Senior classes at Peru State at the time. The walk consists of 362 blocks and was completed on July 18, 1919.

That same year 1,000trees and shrubs were set up along the Trail. A pipe line was later laid to water these other improvements. The Cemetery Board and Ladies Cemetery Association paid for the $450 water line

But the Cemetery is not all graves, imprinted names on sidewalks, and water lines, but also memories to past Peru State graduates.

George Gates, a 1935 graduate of Peru, remembers the cemetery as being a popular place to go with your girlfriend. ,;When there weren't any plays or football games students would go up to the cemetery with their lunch and blankets and, spend the day", Gates recalls. The top of the cemetery also offers peace and an excellent view of parts of Missouri and Kansas.

The Pedagogian

"The observatory is on a track which can be turned all the way around. There is a slit over the roof which can be opened and any spot in the heaven can be observed. One can not look down, however." This description of the unit is-given by Dr. John Christ, Dean of Natural Sciences. ·

"The telescope -in the old observatory is probably the oldest in the state, "Dr. Christ continued, "At present time it is not in working condition."

Mr Victor Kingery, who teaches astronomy as well as

physics and chemistry, now uses a telescope purchased last spring. This spring it will be used for the second time when astronomy will again be offered as a Wednesday night class next semester. Usually astronomy is offered every other year.

The new telescope, which is described as a 6" reflector, is portable and is used in front of the science building or carried to the roof, according to Mr Kingery.

Dr. Christ commented that although the old telescope is an average instrument, the new one is probably more effective than the older model as they now know more about grinding the lenses.

The old observatory, the "silver dome'', originally was located solidly on the ground

Spe·cial Services Benefit Unnoticed

Peru State houses a division known only-as Special Services. It is doubtful. that any Peru student graduates without some contact with some facet of Special Services.

This department is headed by Donald K. Carlile. Mr. Carlile graduated from Kansas State COllege with a Bachelor of Science in Technical Journalism. He also has training iii both mechanical and editorial aspects of daily newspapers.

Special Services, as described by Mr. Carlile, is the link with the college before a student gets there, through admission assistance and contacting prospective students, and then keeps the alumni informed after graduation. During the time the students are here, their activities are reported to hometown newspapers through :he releases distributed by this department.

Pictures are taken by and distributed from Special Services for news releases, the Pedagogian and the Peruvian.

All the printing for the college with the exception of the Pedagogian, the Peruvian, the general bulletin -and the handbook, is carried on here, plus all the distribution of the paper supplies for the college.

All the printing for the college with the exception of the · Pedagogian, the Peruvian, the general bulletin, and the handbook, is carried on here, plus all the distribution of the paper supplies for the college.

Files are kept on almost all Peru State alumni. There are files of graduates by classes, by geographical location, alphabetically, and a maidenname file. There are over 8,500 mailing plates, but it also must be added that many of the plates include more than one person.

As Mr. Carlile put it, "Peruvians have been marrying Peruvians since ages past."

Five alumni chapters have been formed due to the contact of Special Services. They began in 1955 and hold annual meetings.

The alumni also make up most of the membership of the Peru Achievement Foundation which began in 1955. Mr. Carlile serves as secretary for the organization. The Achievement Foundation provides dollar· support that is not supplied by legislation.

near the water tower. This site did not prove advantageous and in 1929, when the science building was constructed, the college moved it to the roof of that building as housing for the telescope there. Astronomy was one of the first science courses offered, but eventually interest declined and it wasn't offered for some time. Interest was revived, because of Sputnik and more recently because of the moon landings. The science building was recently remodeled, but the old observatory was excluded from the plans and lies neglected. Both Mr Kingery and Dr. Christ expressed hope that the old observatory could be restored to working condition in the future.

Chet Nichols Praised

The Chet Nichols performance· Thursday night October 28 held a number of surprises. First-Off the coffee house became a concert when the show was switched from the Student Center Cafeteria to the Fine Arts Auditorium. Second a fairly large crowd (150-175) turned out to judge for themselves whether he was all the Oct. 22 Ped claimed. Third Nicholas not only accompanied himself on guitar but also on the piano.

No one was disappointed for Nichols truly did have a stule of his own and his electric personality generated to the audience. Nobody made a sound or moved after he began to perform. Everyone was caught up in his smooth style so different from previous coffee house performers at PSC.

During the second half of his show, Nichols sang "Ice Cream Man" which really appealed to the audience. Though most of the songs were on the somber side a few did generate laughter such as "I don't want none of them Mushrooms" or "The man on his back with crumbs on his chest." Nichols said "All my songs are originals."

The college conservatory rests high atop the science building on Peru's campus.

Editorial

In less than seven days the football world has been shocked by two deaths. First in pro football the death of the Detroit Lions wide-receiver Chuck Hughes, and just last Saturday college football was shocked by the untimely death of Texas Christian University's head coach Jim Pittman. These two deaths although proven not to be the direct result of football warfare will undoubtedly give football a bad name. Last year the tragic plane crashes that befell Wichita State and Marshall University brought this country closer together. Many people, not only football fans, donations to the funds 1tarted by the schools for the survivors of the crash victims. Football received criticism and it will continue as long as anyone puts on the football gear and enters the battle staged on the mdiron. In a world that is so torn apart by inner conflicts, the world of sports is one of the few uniting people with different

remaining in the game made it impossible for Dan Cotton, the Bobcat kicker to place a toe on the ball.

Another bad pass from center to Cotton after Peru's fourth quarter comeback touchdown with 7: 02 left in the period contributed to thatfailure.

The Peru touchdown was made by John Winkle; on a 20yard pass play from quarterback Terry Criger.

Wayne State's second quarter touchdown was on a three-yard run by Mike Wise with 4: 12 remaining. Dan Ernst's kick, the margin of difference in the final score, was good.

In assessing Saturday's contest, Coach Joe Pelisek expressed pleasure over the Bobcat effort.

"We played as well as we could; but we fell short," he said.

"As has been the case in six of the eight games played prior to Saturday's game, the difference in the final score was not many points," he added.

"The bad snaps from center at two crucial times loom up as

backgrounds. Every country has sports and it's too bad that there aren't as many sports in the world.

Sports can build the character of any young person. Some people are on winning teams while others are on a constant loser. Win or lose, sports builds character. You must learn to be humble in victory and to keep the chin up in defeat. In any sporting event the participant can be injured, but if the person was worried about injury he shouldn't be taking part in the event. Chuck Hughes had hardening of the arteries, Jim Pittman had a history of heart trouble yet the opponents of football will say that if it weren't for football both men would still be with us. We must remember what Chuck Hughes' brother said at Chuck's funeral, "The only tragedy in Chuck's life was losing." Winning was the main thing to Chuck Hughes. Winning should be our own personal goal, not only on the athletic field, but in life. If we have a winning attitude all the time it will be hard to defeat us at any time.

Peru State has met Culver Stockton only once. That was last year at .Canton, Mo., where they fell victimes 42-21. The Wildcats of C-S have a 3-5 season, with one of those wins over a mutual opponentMissouri Western, to whom the Bobcats fell 12-21.

Added incentive for the Bobcats will be the fact that a Peru football team has not won a Homecoming contest since the 1965 win over Doane College 20· 7. Alosing streak now stretching 15 games back into the 1970 season provides additional Bobcat incentive.

DEAN'S JEWELRY

Auburn, Nebraska

"Your Happy Little Jeweler"

Lights· Turn On·

Few of today's students would ponder the origin or workings of the necessities with which they are provided; for example the electric lighting on campus. But the students who remembered Peru's modest beginnings were appreciative of the administration's early efforts to provide this innovation.

In 1891 the state legislature had alloted Peru State College $3,000 to build a light plant large enough to provide lights for the Normal School. The electricity produced prior to this was used only in experimentation.

In the June, 1894, issue of the Normal Coutier, the Pedagogian 's predecessor, tribute was paid to the man who carried out the construction of this plant:

"By his untiring efforts Dr. George L. Farnham secured the effective working of the plant and now the school building, library, and ladies' dormitory are lighted by electricity."

"Mr. Farnham, "cortHrtued the Courtier," is the Principal of the Normal School and Teacher of Psycliology, Ethics, Science, and the Arts of Teaching."

In 1907 a new heating plant with a tall smokestack was constructed for $12,508. Besides heating the college buildings, it also hap electric generators that provided the campus with electricity.

ED1TORIAL COMMENT

Any event can be interpreted differently b} different people or, as I learned last Saturday, by the same person in a different frame of mind.

I attended the alumni luncheon at noon in the Student Center Saturday and sat down among the people with a pen and notebook looking for a story.

I had quite a few things on my mind besides the luncheon. I was thinking of the Nebraska game coming up, work later that day and so on and as I looked around desperately for a story angle, decided there was none.

Early in the week I looked over the few notes I had taken and discovered, upon thinking back in a different frame of mind, that there had been a myriad of stories, there; mine for the taking.

For instance, the stately, gray-haired gentlemen with a.badge that read "1917". Or a tall, friendlylooking man who used articulate gestures while he sooke. This became more meaningful upon learning that the gentleman was a former congressman.

Perhaps the warmest story of all was the elderly lady who clutched an old but remarkably wellpreserved Peruvian like it was her most important possession. And it probably was for those fleeting moments. I watched her as she went from person to person, table to table, pointing at pictures within.

I couldn't see the pictures but I could imagine them, which is often kinder than

It's true probably that all these potential stories were in themselves small and not really newsworthy but together they constituted really warm and honest feelings, something that_,peed never be in short demand or supply.

Looking at it from another there was a table there with a sign on it that simply ;.read "1901". That table remained empty all day. But that's another story.

ON TH' Thru The Lens

ByROBERTVANA

Legislation, court tests and so called "concerned for the public welfare advocates" have been raising a lot of cain in this country because we are fortunate enough to have a free press and easy access to money so that our views can be published if we so desire.

The so-called consumer a<ivocates have been· condemning the use of pesticides and herbecides because they hear that with misuse, these devices can cause harm and even destroy our environment.

Dept. Of Amplification

Took a toot to the north country this weekend after I saw the Bells concert. I was regaling thefamily about what a won· derful concert it was when Uncle Lunk took a peculiar interest in the encore the Bells performed. "War starts cause people act like my cattle, they'll take what you give 'em," he said, "and they don't give a darn. Can't figure out why those kids would · stand and clap 'we don't want no war."'

I immediately jumped to Peru's defense," But Uncle Lunk, 'Sing a Simple song of freedom,' is a good song."

"You're right there son,'' Uncle Lunk replied, "that's just what is is, an awful simple thing to do instead of doing something about it. People who don't give a hoot about any_thing except singing songs while they're doin everything anybody tells 'em to do without questioning it or trying to think for themselves I think starts the wars. I felt sick about how they asked for the 'simple song' twice. They should start thinking about doin something."

I must confessthatUncle Lunk had a point. I thought about it a lot. I thought of the Bells' last song and decided that was what Peru needed, "a miracle."

The limestone rock used in the foundation of the Auditorium and Science buildings was once the foundation of the Old Main building and was quarried about two and a half miles west of Peru.

Years Reverse Peoples' Roles

Astrange twist of life has been discovered in the halls of Peru State's Education Building. Dr. John C. Jensen, Chairman of the Department of Education and Psychology brought to light an unusual turnabout in the roles of teacher and student.

Mrs. Harriett Leech, Peru State Senior, graduated from Humboldt High School and later returned to Humboldt, NE to teach in the field of elementary education. Upon returning to Peru State to complete her Bachelor of Science Degree in Elementary Education, Mrs Leech is presently student teaching as a part of her Professional Semester. And this is where the reversal of roles plays a part in the story. Supervising Mrs Leech's student teaching at the Humboldt High School is Mrs Charlene Tomec, Mrs Leech's former grade school student and Dr. Jensen's former college classmate. Who was it said, "Turnabout's fair play."?

This is true, but how many people carefully read the labels on the products they are using and then follow the manufacturers recommended levels of use. How many people follow directions like an old style cook and say that one teaspoon per gallon water will not disinfect clothes, or kill weeds and insects? Whoever made these directions can't be right.

One scientist estimated that if we quit using these products, production would be cut in half. With this in mind, it would seem to me that the public should carefully examine the products being used and weigh the good and the bad. An extreme to either side is senseless.

Another area that was recently afforded front-page attention was the ·underground nuclear explosion on Amchitka Island that produced results which were about as expected. I do not favor nuclear testing, but it seems to be a necessary evil that we must put up with so that we can be prepared to defend outselves.

There are two sides to this coin. The test went well so far. At least there has been no admission to the contrary. If something went wrong we probably won't know about it anyway. But what if there had been a mistake and there was a tidal wave?

Those who favor nuclear testing will now bug the news · media with a success. The ecological groups will still show their usual pessimism. If some unfavorable story about this test leaks out in a couple of years, these people will say "I told you so".

No one will deny the fact that we have problems, but my question is can we make legislation that fits every move we make? Beware, those of you who think that everything can be fixed with legislation. Someday we are going to come to the point that we will need to legislate the legislation.

Letter To The Editor

Dear Sir:

Last Spring, students on the Peru State Campus elected a president for their student governing association whom they thought would do a good job for them. I would like to pose a question at this point: What exactly has the SGA done this year? So far this year there has been nothing done to actually benefit the student on this campus. You might ask, "What about girls' dorm hours being abolished?" Well, I'll clue you in friend, it was actually last year's SGA that played the biggest part in that administrative move. Let's give credit where it is due.

The president has set up SGA as the SCB is set up, in a fashion that calls for a committee system. This would not be bad if

The statement has been ma that students are welcome come to the SGA meetings a see what they are all about a voice an opinion if they desir Again recently, a student ca to the SGA meeting hoping voice an opinion and had hand raised for fifteen minut without being called on and by the time the meeting ended had not been called You can't say he wasn't se because the person was sitting the direct line of the preside with no one obstructing the vie

Lastly, I would like to me tion that lately there has be quite a bit of trouble in finding quorum to even be able to hold meeting. Perhaps the membe feel the same way I do and don express it, or are, possibly, j disinterested. But whose fault that? Most of us weren't ev elected, when we sent o petitions last Spring the great share of us were unopposed.

I feel that I have at least som authority to speak on this matt since I arp now and have been past SGA member. I haves all of the things I have tioned and I feel that if th organization can no longer serv a positive function as a organization that effective! serves the body it represents -i should either be completely re organized or abolished.

believable in his restless desire for freedom and childish quality.

Familiar, but no less effective, was the sarcasm and greedy ambition displayed by the lords Sebastian (Pat Castle) and Antonio (Mitchell Chase).

And certainly the comic characters immediately appealed to the audience. The drunken butler, expertly created by Bart Neri, was 'delightful in his staggering and drunken selfimportance. Teamed with Trinculo, the jester (John Thomas) and the groveling monster (Willie Fairbanks) he seemed to prove that Shakespeare's comedy is still funny to a modern audience.

The hard work of the cast in meeting the demands of the play and creating the added visual effects helped to make it a successful production.

Certainly they proved that Shakespeare's conclusions and characterizations are still valid and entertaining.

Bells Play Song Variety

Happiness, joy, sorrow, brotherhood and peace were all a part of the meaning represented by the Bells in their songs in their Friday night concert.

Five guys and one girl make up the group called the Bells. They appeared in concert in the Peru State College Auditorium, November 5, 1971, at 8:00 p.m. which was a part of the 1971 Homecoming Activities.

The Bells are from Montreal, Canada, and are on tour to thirteen different colleges around the United States, in which Peru was one.

Here are some comments heard from different students at Peru State College about the concert:

Pat Schultz: I thought they · were good. I think we need more songs for peace and brotherhood, like they sang.

Debbie Barton: I thought the group was really great. They made the settings for their songs and made you feel what they wanted to get across in their songs. It really added to the 1971 Homecoming Activities.

Chuck Smith: It was a good group.

Linda Eichenberger: The best concert I've been to since I've gone to Peru. I wish we would have more like it.

John Cobert: I really enjoyed them.·

Evelyn Heebner: I thought they were really good. They got the crowd participating in their songs. Best concert I've seen in Peru.

Mark Meinheit: I thought they were really great!

Fred Morehouse: It was fantastic!

Drought Is Ended at PSC

Following Saturday afternoon's 35-15 victory over the culver Stockton Wildcats, coach Joe Pelisek's only comment was "wish we had won nine more just like that one." Pelisek had praise for his team in that didn't give up and kept working harder and got better each week. He said he felt that the effort was not quite as much as the previous week when the Bobcats were edged by Wayne State 7-6 7-6.

The victory broke a 15-game losing streak for the Bobcats was the first homecommg victory for the Peruvians since a 1965 win over Doane College. The season for the Bobcats ended with a 9-1 record.

An intercepted pass by Gordon Thompson with 11 :01 remaining in the second quarter broke loose the Bobcat scoring. Thompson earlier in the season to his credit, ran 66 yards for the TD. Dan Cotton made the extra point. In the same period it was Desbien's turn to catch a Criger pass and run 36 yards for a TD.

As the quarter was ending, Dan Cotton was forced to run from the punting postion and gained enough for a first down. Three plays later Criger hit Winkle for· the third TD of the quarter with 11 seconds left in the half. ' \ Culver-Stockton came into the ball game with a TP in the third quarter on halfback- pass from Mike Meyers to Dennis Andy McDonald ran for the two extra points. In the fourth

Bob Nykyforchyn kicked the extra point. , A blocked punt set up the scoring drive that started with 2:29 left in the game, Criger connected with Winkle on a 10 yard pass. Gus Krajicek picked off a pass, and seven plays later Kim Tennal went over for a TD on a 20 yard pass play.

Some 900 million years ago, Nebraska had a range of mountains, the Nemaha Range, according to Geologists. These mountains extended from Omaha to Seneca, Kansas. The Nemaha Range existed long before the Appalachian or Rocky Mountains were present.

THANKSGIVING DAY, 1971

One of the splendid events which shape man's destiny occurred when a small band of people, believing in the essential sanctity of their own being, went in search of a land in which their individuality might be the highest national value, before any arbitrary limitation or duty placed upon some men by the whim or design of others.

They went in search of a land where they might live out their own commitment to their own ideal of human freedom. In.the purpose of their search, the human spirit found its ultimate definition, and in the product of their search, its ultimate expression. They found the land they sought, and it was a difficult land, but it was rich. With their sacrifices they brought forth its riches, and laid the foundation for a new nation.

But more than that, they revealed a new possibility for the expression of man's spirit. In the sure unfolding of that possibility man has begun to experience a world in which he may do justice, love mercy and walk humbly with his God forever.

F'or what those early settlePS established, we give thanks in a way which began with them. In their first years on the hard cold edge of man"1i bright folden dream, they were tried and their faith as t_ested, But when tbeir bodies faile_d, tbeir faith did not.

The stark simple words on a sarcophagus in a little village on the seacoast of Massachusetts tell the story well: "This monument marks the first burying-ground in Plymouth of the passengers of the Mayflower. Here, under cover of darkness, the fast dwindling company laid their dead, leveling the earth above them lest the Indians should learn how many were the graves."

Yet, because mankind was not created merely to survive, in the face of all hardship and suffering, these men and women - and those of the other early settlements - prevailed. And the settlers gathered to give thanks for God's bounty, for the blessings of life itself, and for the freedom which they so cherished that no hardship could quench it. And now their heritage is ours.

What they dared to imagine for this land came to pass.

What they planted here prospered.

And for our heritage - a land rich with the bountiful blessings of God, and the freedom to enjoy those rich blessings - we give thanks to God Almighty in this time, and for all time.

A Time For Us;

Next week is Thanksgiving ation and from an informal ey of students, it appears t the campus will be deserted many in favor of the ditional festivities with ily.

nee home the activities most monly named were visiting tives and friends, eating, ping, and studying.

rs Margaret Tynon's an, "Always family," was oed by many other students at least part of their plans.

Some looked forward to relaxing at home and one expressedthe hope that something exciting would happen during her vacation. ·

Another said, "I'm glad for a vacation from this place and the opportunity to eat lots of good food to make up for the food here."

Several expressed the opinions that vacation is too short, but one thought the length of time is about right.

Marjorie Hayes said she plans

Amid a land of plenty Thanksgiving a time to pause and reflect on the blessings of the year gone by.

Thanksgiving

to choose her engagement ring and Kathy Higley is going home to make her wedding dress.

Another replied that he was going to his girlfriend's house and, among other things, watch the football game on TV.

A common reply from male students was, "Drink beer and watch the football game," and displayed confidence that Nebraska will win the tele,vised contest with Oklahoma. One student, John Vickers, said that he would be traveling to

Oklahoma for that game. Some will be passing up the traditional turkey dinner with their families to travel. Two girls questioned, Theresa Krontz and Diana Schneider, are members of the Newman Club which is making a ski trip to Colorado during vacation.

Most PSC s1ndents are eager for the break from class routine and seem to feel Thanksgiving is a time for family and friends.

The first Episcopal ChU!'ch erected in 1869 in Peru was financed largely by an anonymous lady iu Brooklyn Heights, New York, who contributed one thousand dollars to the enterprise.

Wage -Price Thaw Affects PSC Students

Lifting of the wage-price "freeze" .as of November 15, 1971, will have an effect on charges to students for the remainder of the first semester, .acrording to Dr. Ervin R. Pitts, vice-president of business and public affairs.

Board and room charges will be increased to the amourit indicated in the supplement to the general bulletin as of November 16, 1971. This means board and room charges will be increased $t05 a 'week for the last six weeks ofthe semester. For those who paid board and room for the entire semester, they will be billed for $6.30 additional to the payment made at time of registration. For those paying on the deferred plan, $6.30 will be added to the payment due December 1, 1971. Additional board and room payment ·for both classifications are due December 1, 1971.

Also to be implemented is the portion of the student health fee ·of $5.00 remaining in the first semester. All full-time students will be billed for $1.75 as authorized payment for the last six weeks of the first semester. Payment is due no later than December 1, 1971.

Effective as of November 16, 1971, will be the increase in Placement fee. For studetlts using the services of the Placement office the fee will be $20.00 Also effective as of November 16 will be the increase in graduation fee to $30.00.

All students were notified at time of registration of probable increases when the "freeze" period of 90 days expired, thus increases now announced are in harmony with information given to all students at time of registration, according to Dr. Pitts.

What Happened

to the Money ?

Questions have been raised by Peru state College students as to where tuition money goes and how it is spent. Also, of concern, is what happens to the amount allotted for yearbooks. Some students feel they have paid twice for their yearbook; once at registration, included in tuition and fees, and again to the yearbook staff.

Mr Alan Shipley, Business Manager of PSC, states that the tuition paid by students is "used to pay approximately one-third of the teacher's salaries. The rest of ·school expenses are covered by State funds."

Mr Shipley also stated that: "The Legislature and Board of

Drug Minicourse Offered by PSC

Only 327 Pictures Taken·

It was announced by Nancy Stoll, editor of the 1972Peruvian, that only 327 students have had their pictures taken on November 10th and 11th. This figure compares with 448 yearbooks which have been sold. But there is a chance that students who have not had their picture taken may have another

chance next semester if interest is shown.

Miss Stoll reminds all students that balances must be paid, and anyone who has placed a $1 deposit on a book must soon pay the remaining $7. The editor believes that the support of the student body determines the quality and size of the yearbook.

Members and ideas are both needed to make this project a success. If anyone wishes to make a suggestion or become a member of the committee please contact either chairman Mike Kelly or Frank D'Addesa. Kelly believes that support is needed to bring on a change.

Tom Froehlich Still Trying

What would you do if you've had two knee operations; one while in high school and another while at Peru? Why, compete on the basketball team, of course.

Tom Froehlich is coming off his last injury as a result of the Bobcat's grid encounter with Tarkio. When questioned about the knee, he remarked that it was "about 70 per cent healthy."

The interview itself was quite refreshing. He is the awshucks modest type of guy who doesn't

The guest conductor Claude Smith was warmly received by the band members. Mr Smith has been hired to return next year, marking the first time one conductor has been scheduled for two appearances. One of Mr Smith's compositions, "Sonus Ventorum", was featured. He will present two new compositions at the National Band Meeting this year. Mr Smith

rehearsed with the ·band from 9:30 to 12:00 and from 1:30 to 5:00.

The band clinic next year will. take place on November 11. The clinic must be limited to 130 musicians because this is the maximum number the stage can seat. Promotion for next year's clinic will begin in the fall.

Two lettennen forwards from Cincinnati; Ohio, Earl Brown, 64 senior, and Nate Parks, 6-3, will bring experience in that position. Brown last season averaged 6.9 points per game, and Parks averaged 8.9.

A returning squadman, Don Monzingo, 5-10, junior from Omaha, and Roosevelt Washington 6-1, transfer from Jefferson Junior College, Festus, Mo., rate as probably starters in the guard position.

All three wrestlers have reported for workouts.

Warren Goos, Jack Stanley and Rick Davis are other lettermen.hoping to; bolster Bobcat success.

but will probably. make devastating mistakes. In wrestling, one major error will terminate the match."

Krein predicts the toughest opponents for this year's squad to be Nebraska Wesleyan, Chadron, Wayne, South Dakota Tech, Kearney, and Concordia.

However, Krein continues with a note of optimism, "The. Bobcats will be competitive and WILL NOT admire defeat. If our wrestlers work all week to perfonn successfully for eight minutes, this season will be interesting. Our opener against Nebraska Wesleyan, November 30at 7:30 p.m., will be one of our Rreatest challenges.''

PSC Loses

NAIA Title

Peru, the defending NAIA District II Cross-Country champion, lost its title to UNOmaha who totaled 28 points while Kearney finished second with 63 points, followed by the Bobcats with 72 in Elmwood Park, November 12.

ZERO PREDICT

The football season is rapidly coming to an end and what a season it has been. There have been upsets and there have been close ball games that shouldn't have been close. This year has been a real bad one for the predictor and that includes yours truly. Instead of picking the scores and winners of the key games this week I will instead concentrate on two key games that will be played over the Thanksgiving Day holiday.

First let's look at the game that will pit two great southern teams against each other.

Auburn and Alabama will meet and this game is for all of the marbles in the SEC. The two teams have always been intense rivals and this year should be another great game. Alabama runs from the Wishbone-T offense and uses the ability of their great running back Johnny Musso. Musso has a supporting cast, but it is somewhat weak.

Johnny is the key to the Crimson Tide's attack. Musso is a good runner when he is healthy, but his pain index is very low. The Alabama defense is quick and pursues well, this is a plus on their side. The Auburn team relies mostly on their Hiesman Trophy candidate Pat Sullivan. Sullivan is one of the top QB in the business. He can run and throw with equal authority. His favorite target is swift Terry Beasley who has the knack to catch the ball in a crowd. Explosiveness is the word for Auburn. Auburn 29 Alabama 17.

"THE GAME OF T YEAR" finds Nebras traveling to Soonerland, not o playing for the Big Eight cro but also for the national cro First let's look at the Soon The offense for this team nothing short of devastatin With a group of swift runners Sooners work the Wishbone-T perfection. With Greg Pruitt a healthy Joe Wylie runnin the outside and Leon Crossw running through the middle Sooners attack is awes Opposing teams know what th are going to do but can't st them. If the Sooners have weakness it is their defens Throughout the year is has be somewhat porous. In the end th could be their downfall.

The Nebraska Cornhuske are a complete football tea Both the offense and defen compliment each other ve well. With Jerry Tagge at th helm either throwing the ball Johnny Rodgers, or handing to Jeff Kinney, the Husker fense will go. It is a methodi offense that can either grind the yardage or get in one g swoop. Adiversified offense th moves the ball is the way describe the Huskers. What ca one say about the best defense· the nation. They are not on! good and big, but they are quick and have great lateral movement. The line quickness is the Key to stopping the Soone running attack. The Huskers will be ready. The Thanksgiving Day shoot out should be a good one, Nebraska 35 Oklahoma 21.

Although the experienced wrest! ers are returning, freshman wrestlers have offered stiff competition, according to Coach Krein. The second year wrestling coach estimates from five to seven starting positions may be occupied by freshmen.

Last year's wrestling team, the first team ever for Peru State, held a respectable dual record of four wins and three losses.

Krein says of the upcoming season, "It will be difficult to win meets. We will have wrestlers in every weight class (there are ten) but five to seven of them will be freshmen. Our freshmen have good potential,

THE SGA HAS DISBANDED! !! This shocking bit of news came after the SGA members, or what was left of the members voted to disband at the December 7 meeting. It seems as though the SGA has been plagued with resignations for some time.

The SGA is, or supposedly was the most powerful organization on this campus, and then they decide to disband because they aren't functioning.

The big question at hand now is whether or not the administrative committees appointed by the SGA will remain, or whether they will be dissolved also? Do you as students really realize what it would mean if these committees were dissolved? It means that the students would have no representation in the administration. Also if the Judiciary Board is dissolved, who will the students appeal parking tickets to?

This may seem like a minor matter, but it isn't, The Judiciary Board saves many students mal'ly a considerable amount of money each year.

The SGA represents the student body, and now our representation is hanging in the of the biggest reasons for the SGA taking such action, is because no one gives a damn about representation. Well it is about time some one started giving a damn! ! It's you the student body who should start caring.

If w-e just sit back and not care, what will happen next? We have to do something about this mess, and it has to be done now! !

JOHN M. THOMAS

SGA Votes to Disband

The Student Governing Association of Peru State College, at the December 7 meeting passed unanimously a resolution dissolving the SGA. Of 21 members, 14 were at the meeting, and voted on the resolution.

The -resolution states, "Resolved; that the Student Governing Association of Peru State College be reformed so that the students on administrative committees shall constitute total membership, with the Judiciary Board still meeting every week."

As to what will happen to the SGA at this point is unclear.

Debate Team Receives Trophy

'The Peru State debate team of Pat Castle, and Steve Long tied for second and received the third place trophy at the Wayne State Invitational Forensic Tournament last week end.

Debating in the novice class, Long and Castle have participated in three earlier tournaments this season, according to Debate Coach J. D. Levitt.

Two other debate teams from Peru State - Carol Muse and Devoe Manning, Julee Tillman and Dianne Forke also were entered in the debate and other forensic events.

sThe tournament concluded the debate season at Peru State for the fall semester. Fifteen colleges and universities from a four-state area were entered in the Wayne event.

SCB Plans

Skating Rink

An ice skating rink will_ be placed on the college baseball field through cooperation of the city, Chamber of Commerce, county, and, PSC, with the help of the SCB. IA students have been asked to help also.

The rink will be 80' by 100'. The college maintenance department will help as much as possible in setting the rink up and maintaining it.

Rules and policies will be set up in cooperation with the Peru Chamber of Commerce, since this will be a community project and not solely a college venture.

The recreation committee of SCB, headed by Pat Prose is responsible for the initial idea and further organization and handling of the project.

Wilson's Book Hits Market

Anew book, H. A. Vandercook the Teacher, written by Dr. Gilbert Wilson, associate professor of music, is currently on the market in Chicago.

Dr. Wilson hruY first-hand knowledge of Vandercook, having studied with him after World War II. Mr Vander Cook founded the VanderCook College of Music in Chicago and developed a curriculum for teaching music in the public schools. In addition he was instrumental in starting clinics and summer camps for band students.

The book arises from Dr. Wilson's thesis and occupied two years writing time and another year iri preparation for publishing. Mr J. D. Levitt. did the photography work for the book. This also consumed considerable time. according to Dr. Wilson; since· some of the original photos were torn and muddy.

Dr. Wilson feels his book is useful both historically and as instructional media and will benefit both teachers and students. The book tells the history of Mr Vander Cook his accomplishments, and his teaching techniques.

H. A. Vandercook the Teacher will be reviewed in an upcoming issue of the Nebraska Music Educators Magazine and will soon be available in the Bobcat Bookstore for $3.00 per copy.

The book will be promoted at the National Midwest Band

What To Do In Peru?

What is there to do in Peru?

This may seem like a relevant question to many students, but the drab answers it sometimes receives are without merit. Peru offers many avenues to enjoyment.

Granted, Peru is not the San Francisco of the plains, but it still offers nany opportunities for hours · of fun and enjoyment. There is no reason for a student to stare at the walls of his dormitory and feel sorry for himself for lack of anything better to do. Peru is only what one makes it it, so get out and look around.

Concerts, plays, lectures, dances, and recitals are presented on campus throughout the year. These are not only presented by students but also by faculty members, guest speakers, and professional artists. An important part of the entertainment schedule is the student-planned and studentdirectoo productions, which give any student the opportunity to participate.

There were some complaints about the Shakespeare production that was presented earlier in the year, but how many people gave it a chance? No doubt, many students were suffering from boredom when they could have been enjoying the play.

Nature lovers are not to be denied either. Hikes and outings in the hills surrounding Peru can fill many spring and fall hours. Horse-back riding at the nearby Ponderosa can also be enjoyed. The Missouri River is only minutes away for all those interested in angling. Students can also find the solace of nearby Neal Park.

The sports-minded student also has opportunities for enjoyment. Varsity athletics gives many the opportunity to observe their favorite sport and the intramural programs gives many more students a chance. to participate. There is an intramural program for both men and women.

The Bob-Inn is a handy place for those that just wish to chat over a cup of coffee or a soda. If you enjoy bridge or any other card game - this is the place to go. Adjacent to the Bob-Inn is a game room equipped with.pool tables and a ping-pong table.

The night spots of Peru are no match for those of Chicago, but many students enjoy congregating at Duffy's or Eldon's. They may be simple but they're still good for fun and light conversation.

Even the winter snow has advantages for enjoyment, as there aren't any. rules prohibiting building snow structures on the campus. This opportunity always brings out creativity from some of the more "cold-blooded" students. These same students can also spend an afternoon sledding on a nearby hill.

Dorm life is usually uneventful, but it does offer time for sociability. Actually, dorm life is what you make of it. It can be a place for visiting, studying, •Or just a hideway for relaxing.

If you live off campus, you can always invite some friends over Anyone can join clubs or organizations. In short enjoy - yourself and don't 11se the apothetical line, "there is nothing to do."

Goal in Final Seconds Puts Peru Ahead 61-60

Never, thus far into the season, have so many done so much so often. The Peru cagers defeated a taller foe, Doane, 6160, December 7, on a fade-away jump shot by Guard Rosey Washington with just seven seconds remaining settle the issue. Perhaps the Tigers received more than they had bargained for. Little did they know when they took the court that night that they were about to encounter a pack of hungry cats. The taste of victory still fresh from their conquest over Alvert Lea (Minn.) only four nights before. It was nip n' tuck all the way. It was that kind of a game.

The contest started out as expected. The favored Tigers jumped out to an early lead, 1613, after the first ten minutes. That lead grew to 26-18, an eight point bulge, their biggest lead of the evening. Then "The Pack" went to work, a 6-3 freshman by the name of Mike DeRuntz cut the lead to six, 26-20 on a shot just lll!derneath the hoop. Tom Froehlich added two more on a driving layup, while Bob Bowen had the audacity to drop in two free throws in a one and one situation to pull his teemmates within two, 26-24. The Tigers then got it together for awhile, building to 34-29. Afree throw by Washington followed by two

more by guard Guy Lammie pulled 1: 19 remaining in the half, enter one hostile coach from Doane (whose name escapes me now) who lost in a heated discussion with the officials, thus awarding Peru two Technical four shots that tied it up 34-34. The Bobcats entered their den at halftime ahead, 3834.

Five minutes gone into the third period, the Tigers tied it up 39-39. With 13 '.38 to play, Rex Beatty fouled out. Peru pulled out in front again on a jump shot by Earl Brown, rebounding by DeRuntz and a host of others, until they led by 51-44 at the ten minute mark, Peru's biggest lead of the night. Peru's hopes took another nosedive when with 8:48 remaining Bob Bowen also fouled out. The contest was tied for the fifth time, 51-51 with 8: 11 remaining. From then on it was strictly run-and-gun for both squads. With just over two minutes left, the invaders pulled within one, 59-58. Dave Green took possession of an important rebound after Doane had forged ahead, 60-59. ·A missed freethrow by Washington gave Doane the ball with must 17 seconds to play. The Tigers were then called on over and back across the midcourt line, thus setting up Washington's last second heroics.

Bobcats Regain Composure After Early Season Doldrums

William Penn Tournament

"We're awfully green, llut I feel that the Bobcats will come back," that was Coach Jack Mclntire's comment following his cagers 89-74 consolation triumph over Albert Lea (Minn.) in the William Penn Tournament held at Oskaloosa, Iowa, December 3-4, which the Peruvians won a year ago.

In their opening contest with Iowa Wesleyan the cold-shooting Bobcats, who were 17-7 last season, were crushed 98-56. In this Friday night contest, Nate Parks teamed with center Rex Beatty to share scoring honors with ten ·points apiece. Iowa Wesleyan shot 53 per cent from the field and converted 69 per cent from the charity stripe while Peru could manage only 25 per cent from the field and 44 per cent from the free-throw line.

The Bobcats had to wait until Saturday night for their first victory in three starts, stopping Alvert Lea (Minn.) College 8974. The cagers came back just as Coach Mcintire predicted. The Peruvians, converted 39 per cent of their shots from the floor and 63 per cent of their charity tosses. In their first win of a 24game season, forward Earl Brown, a native of Cincinatti, Ohio, led the attack by totaling 29 points and 26 rebounds. His effort was aided by 6-7 Rex Beatty when the big center hit for 24 points, while pulling in 12 rebounds. Peru's record now stands at 1-3 with Northwest Missouri College being their next foe December 18, at home.

Tarkio. 0 Peru

Tarkio College spoiled Peru's 1971-72 basketball debut by dumping the Bobcats' 74-53, November 23 at Peru.

Senior Nate Parks, a 6-4 forward from Cincinnati, Ohio, led the Bobcat attack by dropping in 16 points and gathering in eight rebounds while fellow Senior Earl Brown followed right behind with 15 points and 14 rebounds. The closest Mclntire's cagers could do was 62-49 with 6: 4-0 remaining in the final period. With the exception of Bob Bowen, every Bobcat scored in the opening contest for both schools.

Wrestlers Defeat WU

Kim Tennal piilned .his opponent Tuesday evening and led his Peru State team mates to a 29-12 wrestling victory over Nebraska Wesleyan University. The 158-lb. Sabetha, Kans., frosh downed Jim Pollock 8n 4: 29 in his match in the inaugural meet for both teams.

A large crowd, including many area high school wrestlers witnessed the 10-match card, plus four exhibitions by Peru grapplers.

Bobcat coach Harlan Krein was high in his praise not only for Tennal, but also for Ken Boettcher, 142-lb. freshman from Omaha South, and Dean

Anstey, Cumberland, Iowa, Freshman. The Bobcats were aided in their victory when Wesleyan did not fill the 118-lb and 126-lb weight classes.

Peru State won its own quadrangular wrestling meet held on the Peru State campus Monday afternoon. Doane, Bellevue, and John F. Kennedy college were all soundly defeated by head coach Harlan Krein's wrestlers.

Peru's first meet of the afternoon was against Doane. The outcome was a far cry from the Peru-Doane basketball game. The basketball game was a real squeaker, while Peru blitzed Doane's wrestling squad by a 450 count. Three forfeits and two pins aided the host team's cause. R.D. Arnold and Gary Lesoing gained forfeits while Rod Wartman and Ken Boettcher gained pins over their opponents. Doane failed to score in the match.

SGA Rejuvenates

By Janie Montang

Peru State SGA members Dec. 14 withdrew the resolution to reform the organization, which had been passed at a Dec. 7 meeting of the group. The resolution read:

"Resolved; that the Student Governing Association of Peru State College be reformed so that the students on administrative committees shall constitute total membership with the Judiciary Board still meeting every week."

College President Neal S. Gomon told SGA President Steve Long that he did not want students elected to administrative committees. In the past these members have been appointed by the SGA.

The objective of the Dec. 14 meeting was to determine what the student body should do about the current confused situation. About 30 interested students, Dr. Guy Rosenberg, Vice-President of student affairs, and Dr. Thomas Scherer, gliidance and counseling, attended the meeting, and opening action withdrew the previously mentioned resolution.

The group elected Dr. Scherer and Mr Roger Salmela, history instructor, as the new organizational sponsors.

ATime For Reflection

Last week in Northern Ireland, in the town of Belfast, a bomb exploded in a crowd of Christmas shoppers. Eighteen people were buried a fallen wall. Beneath the rubble, frantic rescuers found four bodies, two of them were babies.

In a land of violence, where senseless death has become a way of life, the inhuman slaughter of two children beckons thru the smoke of misunderstanding and hatred surrounding the turmoil in Northern Ireland. It is a cry, a plea that men live together in peace, where the only violence a child might see is an irate father over a report card.

In eight days, Christians throughout the world will celebrate. the birth of their Messiah. The celebration is called Christmas. And in the midst of this celebration, Christians are killing one another and more tragic, children are dying. People shake their heads and sigh. Children flutter in the throes of agony and die.

Christians sing of "Joy to the World," and of sleeping "in heavenly peace." In Northern Ireland, this Christmas will hold little joy to those who have lost loved ones thru death.

John Wayne once said something of great insight. To paraphrase him "Children are wonderful, too bad they grow up to be people." But two children in Northern Ireland will not grow up. Perhaps they have found their "heavenly peace."

Shaloem.

President Steve Long proposed a new amendment to the SGA constitution, which would change the membership of the organization from representatives of the campus to the entire student body. The amendment reads:

PERU STATE COLLEGE, PERU, NEBRASKA

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 17, 1971

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

When I first heard the S.G.A. had disbanded I asked myself can a few or possibly more apathetic students deprive the whole student body of a student government? Also, isn't the S.G.A.'s responsibility to maintain meaningful com-· munication between the students and faculty? If this is true who will represent the student to the faculty if there is no S.G.A.

The S.G.A.'s function is also to review and initiate rules governing student conduct on the campus. Since there is no longer an S.G.A. then there are no longer these rules which can put the student body in a helterskelter type of government.

I've been told a student that was attending an S.G.A. meeting was refused the right to speak at one of their sessions. How can the student be represented when he cannot be heard?

My solution to this problem of no Student Governing Association is to give the power back to the student not to the few representatives because it is proven they don't know how to use their power.

"The Token"

Presented Dec. 13

On Monday, December 13, something new was tried at PSC. "The Token," an original oneact play written by van Wirth and Julee Tillman, and directed by Wirth was presented in the Exhibition Court of the Fine Arts Center. The cast included: Dale Burke, Mike Kelly, Bob Wernsman, ·and· Linda Stubbendeck. This was the first production ever to be presented in the court.

The acting area was divided into three areas, an office,. a living room and a bus stop. Each of the areas represented a stage or facet of man's struggle. The theme was that of the hollow existence of man. This hollow existence is, because the demands of society drain life of all beauty and purpose.

Mr. Drama Person Leaving PSC

Mr Bolton, drama instructor, will be ·leaving Peru State College at the end of this semester. He will have an assistantship in teaching and will be working for his PHD at Florida State University, 'falahassee, Florida.

Before coming to Peru, Mr Bolton taught for one year at Dana College, Blair, Neb.raska. He attended college at Wilmington, Ohio, and received his Masters Degree from the University of Denver, Denver, Colorado.

Mr Bolton's parting comments were, "I think the students should have more direct control over their social and academic lives at Peru State College; and teachers ought to relate to students as human beings. If the students don't take more direct control, Peru State College will die." This school has the potential to do some very innovative and exciting things but it is not doing it. There's too much dead weight."

Club Enjoys Ski Trip

Eleven Newman Club members spent their Thanksgiving vacation on a ski trip to Colorado.

The group left Peru for Loveland, Colorado after classes Wednesday afternoon. They arrived at Loveland late Wednesday night and stayed in the dorms at Loretta Heights College.

ski mstruction was offered.for the less talented members of the trip. The members skied all day Thursday, and that afternoon the traditional Thanksgiving dinner was substituted by a Thanksgiving smorgasboard.

Friday and Saturday were spent at the Vales Ski Course. The groups rented a condominium to stay in at Vale, and did their own cookiJ)g for the last two days of the trip. Several of the members commented that the Vales's course did not have as many bare spots as Loveland's. ·

"Saturday while we were

skiing, the snow was coming so fast, I bet you couldn't see twenty yards in front of you," commented Jerry Symancyk.

The group left Vale about 9:00 Sunday morning. One of the two cars broke down after encountering snowy weather and caused a delay in returning. The skiers finally arrived back in Peru late Sunday night, with not a single casuality from the slopes. As Bonnie Stemper stated, "there was never a dull moment."

Members participating in trip were: Carol Goracke, Mickey Welch, Theresa Krontz, Diana Schneider, Bonnie Stemper, Tom Tarnacki, Jerry Syri:tancyk, Dave Lainez, Dave Jubinville, Mike O'Brien, Charlie Fox, and sponsor Father John McCabe of Nebraska City.

The Newman Club's raffle and bake sale, provided funds for the trip. Each member paid approximately $50.00 for the entire trip.

Just got back from a toot to the north country where Uncle Lunk was regaling the family about how the SGA is finally getting something done. In his day they used to have town haII meetings where he used to come and vote on important issued. Now he says the town just got too big. "Them folks at Peru State CoIIege sure are lucky to be small enough to be able to still have an opportunity to have direct democracy," Uncle Lunk told us.

I started thinking about direct democracy at Peru and decided it would be a good thing. People would represent their own interests then. They would have a direct say in what goes on at Peru. The students would start to work together and accomplish something as a whole, the way it should be!

stated, enthusiasm and support had dropped.

·Don Carlile, Director of Special Services at Peru .since 1956, puts in his last day on December 15, 1971. Come January 3, 1971 he will assume the position of Director of Placement at Northwest Missouri State College, Maryville.

Carlile came to Peru in 1954 as the Assistant Director <?f Special Services. His work has been mainly concerned with con· tacting prospective students for Peru and preparing publications to interest students in Peru · State.

Carlile felt the most satisfying part of his job was "the op-. portunity to get to know kids while they are still kids, then to see them reach maturity and go out and contribute to society."

As secretary of the Peru Alumni Association he as gotten to know many Peru Staters and he feels that they take a back seat to no one as far as accomplishments go. He also feels there is something unique about

Peru graduates. He thinks it is because sttltlents who choose to come to a small school in a small town do it for the same reason. And that causes them to form close and lasting friendships.

Carlile said he has seen five alumni chapters organized since he has been at Peru. There is one in Northern California, Southern California, Omaha, Lincoln, and the Rocky Mountain Area.

Carlile concluded the in· terview with this statement.

"You can't be a part of a place as long as I have and not feel like it's a part of you." He says he plans on making frequent visits to the Campus of a Thousand Oaks.

ZERO'S WRAP-UP

The past college football season is over. except for the bowl games and what· an ex· citing season it was; It all started in the early fall when the first pre season polls made the scene. In one of the ma ior oolls the Fighting IriSh of Notre Dame were picked as the best. Now it is twelve weeks later and the Irish are just another team amongst many. The irue champions are the NebraSka Cornhuskers. They have held their number ranking from the first week and are of holding it until the New Years date with the Bear and his Crimson Tide. This was an · explosive year in foot· ball. From the Wishbone T to the power I offense has been the name of the game. The Oklahoma Sooners were the surprise team of the year with their offensive Show. A great multitude of running backs and a great leader led to their success. Another surprise team of the year was' Alabama. The Bear installed the Wishbone T .and with the talented running of Johnny Musso the Tide was on It's way. Michigan was clearly the class .of the Big Ten. The Wolverines are undefeated and on their way to the Rose Bowl

and a date ·with Stanford. The tough Micl}igan defense was the key to many of their victories. College football was truly ex· citing.

The professional football scene is almost over and the division championships are still in doubt. This could be one of the most exciting seasons for pro football yet. In the sixth edition of the Super Bowl look for it to be ·the Dallas Cowboys and the Kansas City Chiefs. This is the year of the Although there has been thrill after thrill there has also been some moments of sorrow. The untimely deaths of Chuck Hughes and Jim Pittman shocked the football world and once again made opponents of football bring up the question is it worth it? I think it is and I think those two who died think that football is what gave them their big chance.

The citation of the year goes to Ohio State coach Woody Hayes who out on a brilliant exhibition during the Michigan game. After storming the field after a call had not been made Hayes then tore up the yard markers on the sidelines. That was just some more of the color and excitement of football.

PSC Grapplers Take l Drop· 1

In wrestling action last week, Harlan Krein's Peru State grapplers lost a 21·24 meet to Kearney State Wednesday, December 8 and defeated Midland College 18-14 on Friday December 10. ·

Going into the final hea,.yweight event, the score was tied at 21-all in the Kearney contest. Schutheiss decisioned

Jim Rezac to earn the points which made the margin of victory.

Gary Lesoing, Hickman, Peru's regular in the 126clb. class was unable to participate in the Midland match because of a draft physical. Jack Stanley, Trilro, Iowa, was defeated in · that event.

The college football is almost atan end with the exception of the bowl games. Most of these games should offer the excitement fitting the end of a most exciting season. There have been some surprising teams this season and of course there have been some disap· pointments. With all the bowl games set and the teams getting ready, Zero will make a final attempt to improve his passing average. The. Sun Bowl will find the surprising team of the Big Eight, Iowa State, playing the Tigers of LSU. This is the first bowl ap· pearsnce for the Cyclones and they should be ready to face the challenge presented by the boys from the bayou country. On the other hand LSU will be ready to meet the Cyclones and probably give them quite a tussle. I'd like to think the boys from Iowa State would win this game, but the Tigers of LSU should be too tough. LSU 28 Iowa State 14. Colorado and Houston will tangle in the Bluebonnet Bowl. Houston should have the home field advantage since the game will be played in the Astrodome. This will be the only thing the Cougars will have gomg tor

Peru Pedagogian

PERU STATE COLLEGE, PERU, NEBRASKA

Peditorial

' Teaching, as is well known, is a difficult task. The teachers, ·in performing his functions, carries a dual responsibility of exhibiting his competence to both his peers and his students. The competence of a teacher is evaluated.

The evaluation of a teacher's competence poses the responsibility of an accurate assessment. The evaluator's task is to make a value judgement as perfect as is possible. The duty of the evaluator insists on both competence and all available information. There are two groups who seem to be in a position to perform this task of evaluator; the students and the "professional educators."

The first group, the students, by being directly influenced by a teacher in a learning process, is in a position to evaluate a teacher's competence. This is especially true of college students, who, by experience, have the ability to realize and appreciate the ability of the teacher's effectiveness in a learning situation. It should be reasoned, then, that c9llege students can be considered as one of the better qualified groups in the evaluation of a teacher.

The second group, the "professional educators," by the nature of their profession, are "certified" as being "qualified" in evaluating teachers.

There are then two groups that are in a position of evaluating a teacher's effectiveness. While examining closely these two groups, it would seem both are lacking in some respective area of evaluator competence. The students, while in an excellent position to determine the teacher's ability by being directly affected within the learning situation, lack the "credentials" to "qualify" their assessments. The other grup, the "professional educators," have the "credentials" to "qualify" their assessments, yet lack the involvement within the learning situation to actually determine the · effectiveness of the teacher upon the students.

These "inadequacies" within each group in evaluating a teacher, should be alleviated. By the necessity of alleviating these inadequacies, it should follow that it is essential , to unit .the strengths, and thus the weaknesses, of these two groups into one group, into a Faculty-Student Evaluation Board. A Faculty-Student Evaluation Board, by its composition, would combine the important components of an evaluator which would produce the most accurate appraisal of a teacher. A Faculty-Student Evaluation Board would also have the advantage of tending to end any disagreements in an evaluation judgement of a teacher's ability.

A Faculfy-Student Evaluation Board (at a college that functioned primarily for the education of future teachers) would have an additional advantage, it would make available a valuable experience for a student serving on an evaluation board.

A cordial request for a Faculty-Student Evaluation Board at a college could be considered. The issues involved in not having a Faculty-Student Evaluation Board at a Teacher's college has repugnant implications. A decision concerning a Faculty-Student Evaluation Board at a college would imply the attitude which is held of the college students, at that college, as future citizens and future professional educators.

Superintendents Speak to PSEA·

Dr. Donald Burling, superintendent of the Falls City school system, and Jim Withee, superintendent of the Nebraska .City school system were guest speakers at the Peru Student Education Association meeting January 27. There were 66 members present for the program.

The speakers talked on what a superintendent looked for when hiring a teacher. After each superintendent gave a· short talk, they answered questions from the PSEA members.

Some of the issues discussed were length of hair of an applicant, how much emphasis is placed on a student's involvement in college activities, how much1emphasis is placed on the graae received in the proper way to apply for a job, and questions asked druing the interview, to name a few. ·

Both speakers agreed strongly that a teacher should become involved in the community in which he or she is teaching. They felt that a prospective teacher should find out something about the community before his interview. Ben J. Rogge, 26, Auburn, has

The Peru State basketball team extended its losing streak to six games as Kearney State slipped by the Bobcats, 96-89, January 15th, at Kearney. Aided by the efforts of Ananias Montague, who finished the contest with 27 points and 19 rebounds, the Pack found themselves resting on a seven point lead, 52-45, at the end of the· first half.

Determined Kearney, however, slowly whittled away at that lead. Foul trouble plagued the Pack as five players fouled out in the final five minutes. The outcome was decided at the charity stripe as the Antelopes ·converted 21 of 31 free throws. 1:50 remined in the struggle when Peru surrendered its lead for the last time.

Peru Hosts School men

Last Saturday, Jan. 22 a special day for Peru State College, as the twentieth annual Schoolmens Day was held. Schools Day, is basically a time for an informal meeting of area schoolmen. This year schoolmen hailed from Nebraska, Kansas ,Missouri and Iowa. State legislators, Sen. Calvin Carsten of Avoca, and Sen. Irvin S. Wiltse of Falls City. also attended.

All the guests visited with PSC · faculty, and became aquainted · with the facilities. Also included in the days activities, were a coffee, a dinner, and a look at Peru's basketball team, as they beat Simpson College.

Shotte nha me I Attends ·Conventlon

Dr. Shottenhamel, made a trip to New Orleans for Phi Alpha Theta convention over Christmas vacation. The convention lasted four days, and consisted of general meetings of business purposes, and revising the ritual for initiation of new members. The restthe time was devoted to students and historians, reading papers and discussing them.

This was the 5oth anniversary for Phi Alpha Theta as an honorary society, and the convention was held in the Hotel Sharaton Charles.

Dr. Shottenhamel visited his mother in Chicago for Christmas. On the way befm:e attending the convention to· New Orleans he visited the hostorical battlefield of Vicksburg, and while in New Orleans Dr. and Mrs Shottenhamel visited the old French quarter of New Orleans.

Helping Out ls ·Her Goal

Switchboard operators often are bored with their job, or feel thit the noise and same old routine day after day will drive them nuts. This is not the case with Mrs Stephens, switch board operator and mail clerk at Peru State College.

Mrs Stephens, who started working full time in 1962, says almost every phone call is different, and there is no time to be bored. The noise is one problem but she says that it doesn't bother her as much as it would others who aren't around it all the time.

Mrs Stephens was employed part time by the college before hPing hired as a full time

operator and mall clerk. She states that the addition of being mail clerk to her job has made it a little harder, but nothing that you can't stand. Mrs Stephens biggest problem is not being able to find people who are wanted by way of the switch board. The other noticeable problem is figuring up the phone bill at the end of the month, and figuring out who called where and to what department the call is to be charged.

Mrs Stephens says that her job is one of enjoyment and pleasure. It's a chance to meet and talk to people and most important to her, to be of assistance to people.

Cold weather, ice, and swimming do nof mix, as found out by some of the students at Peru State College.

Miss Rutz's eighth period swimming class, consisting of all girls, did not especially appreciate the cold weather Monday. The water was warm in the pool, as long as you stayed in it, the showers were nice, until you them, and the weather was fine, until you stepped out the door.

Immediately the dampened hair of the girls had ice hanging from every strand. As the girls

dashed toward their stopping places, their skin froze and the icycles continued to form. Their hair cracked with every move they made.

The cold, icy weather caused other accidents as many of the students went tumbling to the ground, with feet and books flying everywhere. The sidewalks seemed to be supporting a few more people, as many were afraid to drive the hills of Peru.

Salt was distributed by the handfuls, but by six o'clock that evening, it was refrozen and as as ever.

J.D. Gets Help

This semester for the first time, the debate instructor, Mr J. D. Levitt, is being assisted in this class by practicum students. The topic for the spring debate has been decided that it is to be, "Resolved: That the Federal Government should ·adopt a policy of "Zero" population growth.

Also, tentatively scheduled, some of the debators will travel to Meand, Nebr. to help judge an area speech contest on March 13, while the following day, they will aid in directing the District Speech Contest in Peru. · ·

Rink Constructed for Public Use

Anew recreational facility has provided leisure time pleasure for the inhabitants of Peru this winter. An ice skating rink was constructed for public use in early December.

A number of people including Paul Kruse, city maintenance workers, and industrial arts students collaborated in the building of the rink.

Originally planned for the baseball field, the rink was moved to the tennis courts when a leakage problem developed because of a breakage in the tape binding of the plastic

sheets.

Sponsorship was provided by the county which donated the planks and the city Chamber of Commerce which donated one hundred dollars for materials. A maintenance crew tends to the rink by supplying fresh coats of water <donated by. the city) whenever necessary.

Anyone willing to brave the weather is invited to put on his skates and come down to the rink. The lights will be left on until midnight seven days a week.

Once again an effort is being made to inform students of the use of the Student Program fees and Student Center fees. Student Center fees are used in payment of the debt on the Student Center · building. The fees are also used in maintenance of the Center. This amount is not at anytime used for any student programs. The Student Programs fee, assessed to all day time students, is used for the sole purpose of student entertainment. From the funds collected during second semester registration and a small amount remaining from first semester, the following programs will be sponsored jointly by the Student Center Board and Student Programs during the second semester:

Two major concerts by Denny Brooks and Mac Davis, three dances, "Trash of the Thirties," seven movies, Ruane the Hypnotist, Dalsgaard the pianist, Palmerton art show, a car rally, and several other events not yet scheduled.

Any student having any questions concerning these events is encouraged to attend a Student Center Board meeting any Thursday night at 5:00 p.m., in the west dining room of the Student Center.

Some of the participants in the Annual Schoolmen's Day were (L to R) Dr. Neal S. Gomon, Senator Calvin F. Carstens, Avoca, 2nd District, Ted McCartney, Lincoln, Dean Thiesfeld, Lincoln, and Dr. Lester Russell, PSC.

The yearbook is in trouble. This time it is not going to be taken away, but the problem is just as serious. People are needed to work on the Peruvian, desperately. Last year when the threat of extinction came up, many interested people came to the defense of the Peruvian, and it was saved. Where are the interested students now? There are some people working long hours to get the yearbook out this year, but these few people can't do all the work. More people are needed. Any student interested should contact Everett Browning or Nancy Stoll, this year's editor.

It has been brought to my attention that certain young ladies have been sent to the Dean of Women for leaving their trash cans in the hallway overnight. It seems to me that there are more important things on this campus for the administration to devote their energy to. After all, aren't there more pressing problems than trash in the hallway overnight?

It looks like the SGA is back on its feet. The new proposed plan that the students voted in favor of at registration could be very beneficial to the students of PSC. Putting the power of running the SGA inrhe hands of the students is the best possible way. of running the organization.

Where is our school spirit? The singing of the color song at honors convocation sounded rather sick. Maybe we need a new one, something with a little more punch to

Dr. Singh Ag·rees

The war between India and Pakistan concerned at least one resident of Peru, Nebraska. He is Dr. Balwant Singh, associate professor of educational psychology at Peru State · College, who is originally from India.

Dr. Singh is from Karn;il:,<· Haryana, India, ·which· is 230 miles southeast of the border with West Pakistan. His parents, three sisters, and two brothers are living in Karna! at the present time.

Dr. Singh is now a citizen of Canada. He moved to Lockeport, Nova Scotia from India in 1962 and became a Canadian citizen in 1968. He came to Peru fu September of 1969 to begin teaching.

prime minister of the new country, Bangladesh.

At the start of the crises ten ·million refugees fired from East Pakistan to India to escape the. terrorists of West Pakistan. India could not handle the economic strain by itself. Over 2,500 schools in India had been closed to house the refugees. Tensions had also developed from refugees seeking jobs in the Indian villages at lower wages than the local residents received.

Dr. Singh does not endorse at all the taking of the law into the hands of an individual or group, but feels that these examples of reprisals by the Bengalis toward the so called collaborators are exceptions rather than the rule.

Social responsibility and adjustment are important in organizations for the education and enrichment of the Peru State College student. The system of working experience in an organization provides opportunity for the individual to develop a system of values and a concept of social responsibility to benefit his community. The general topic to be understood by an organization is

the entire internal functioning of the student body including its educational and social needs. Such width of understandng will enable organizations to best facilitate the scope of student needs. The varieties of individual understanding which are within an organization are and will, hopefully, be brought to a better focal point to best meet the needs of the Peru State College Community.

The Pedagogian

The situation as Dr. Singh sees it was a result of West Pakistan's political and economic exploitation of East Pakistan. In the countries first free election, East Pakistan won a majority. Its leader, Sheik Mujibur Rahman, was arrested by West Pakistanis because he had won a clear mandate for provincial autonomy. Sheik Rahman was released by the West January 17 and is now

"The go\ ernment of Bangladesh is doing everything it can to stop these isolated incidents of revenge," Dr. Singh commented.

station. The station broadcasts up to :!OO feet, which means it transmitts to all of Delzell and to a few nearby homes.

Since Mike's graduating next semester, K.R.A.P.'s future is in doubt. His idea of keeping a radio station in Peru was to place a transmitter in every dorm with a central studio. He went to the Circle K club (who had a radio station) for support. But the club told him there was a lack of enthusiasm for a college radio station so Mike was reluctant to experiment with his idea and soon gave it up.

Mike is planning two specials for this semseter, one is a collection of jokes which is a Laugh-In type program called "431" Corny Jokes". The second special is still being planned.

Wrestling Adopted In 1970

Many people may not know the interesting story of how the wrestling team got started in 1970. "We got our mat in the first part of December, put a notice on the bulletin board, and started from there," coach Krein said. The team won its initial match last season, and finished the year with four wins, and three losses. Krein believes that the team could· have gone undefeated last year because they should have won two of the matches they lost, and could have won the third.

Wrestlers To Chadron

The Bobcat wrestling team, after a 40-9 loss to heavily talentedWayne State last Friday night, have just six meets to get ready for the Conference championships at Chadron on February 26, and the District championships at Wayne on March 3 and 4.

Coach Harlan Krein believes that Wayne State will be favored, and should win the Conference race, with Chadron State probably placing second, and either Peru or Kearney State finishing third, depending on how the pairings in the various weight classes come out.

The students. were also ady to start the second mester when they returned in nuary. There were two frequently entioned negative aspects of

the new system. One aforementioned complaint was that no mid-term grades were issued. It was felt by the majority of students who mentioned this that even though more book work was involved, mid-term grades should be reimplemented into the current system.

The other basic complaint was that there was no break from the time school started until Thanksgiving. By the time Thanksgiving did' come, everyone, including teachers, were so tired that all they seemed to be doing was waiting for vacation. Some students felt that a long weeken!l during the latter part of October would have been beneficial.

A compromise is the art of dividing a cake in such a way that everyone believes that he has got the biggest slice.

Leading the grapplers so far this season have been undefeated Ken Boettcher at 142 lbs. and Kim Tennal, who suffered his first .defeat against Wayne State, at 158 lbs. These two, coach Harlan says, will be Peru's best hopes in the upcoming championships, and the best bets of any of the Bobcat wrestlers to go on to the NAIA final championships at Klamath Falls, Oregon in March. Although a whole team may be taken to the finals, Krein related, it doesn't make much sense to take a boy unless he finishes either first or second in districts, because of the tough competition in the NAIA finals.

lh IHENE ROGGE

Construction of the new Peru State bulletin board has gotten underway. The class of 1919 took the initiative action for the board at their 50 yard reunion in 1969.

With the help of the classes of 1962-1967 and the classes of 1969 and 1970, the plan has materialized.

The bulletin board, which is to replace the original one donated by the class of 1917, is estimated to cost 12 hundred dollars. The Peru Building and Supply Company is in charge of the construction.

The design for the building was drawn up by Dee V. Jarvis and Gary Linden at the request of Don Carlile. The wedge shaped structure is to have two 36 x 72 inch sJiding glass doors, with a twelve inch deep display case on the north end. Lights are to be installed along the eaves of the roof.

board is under construction in front of the AdnumstratJon buildings.

The purpose of the structure is to inform students of various events. Placement andintramural notices along with daily notices are to be posted in the case. A special spot in the case is reserved for "Tell the .World About Peru."

Art Instructor Reed Makes Conference Team

"Being the only instructor in the department has its advantages and disadvantages"

commented Leland Sherwood the only art instructor at State College.

The reason behind being the only instructor stated Mr Sherwood, is that the legislature had to cut down on spending, so the art department was one of the many who suffered.

Mr Sherwood, when asked if it was hard being the only instructor mentioned that it is difficult to teach all areas of art and not just specialize in own area. Being the only instructor does create · hard feelings and cause many difficulties such as classes have to be limited to small numbers and consequently many students have to wait a year or two to get classes, and in the meantime many lose interest. With onlv one instructor, you don't get a variety of opinion, it is hard to atlract students to the departmcnl, and there is really no room for those students who wanl art for a leisure course.

O n the other hand, there are ;1dvantages. One being, Mr Sherwood is independent and he makes his own decisions on what ht· lhinks should be covered in each level of art. Since classes arc limited, Mr Sherwood gets to know and become close to many ol h1« «l11ilf>nf« F'.vPrvnnP

31 I saw "Hair" in Pershing Aud1tormm m Lmcoln. I wish more people of all ages could see this beautiful production. When saying beautiful, I don't mean nice sets, beautiful costumes, I mean beautiful in the ideas presented. This production touched on everything concerning the youth oi today.

I was a little· bit surprised at the number of members of the older generation that were present. One comment heard was that of a matronly woman and her husband. They said, "There were some things we didn't understand, but once we got the general idea of the production, we understood what it was all about/' They remarked that there was one word used quite often wtrtch they understood. This word was an infamous four letter word, which is quite familiar in the vocabulary of college students. It seems as though people of all ages are familiar with this word which bridges the generation gap somewhat.

I am sure that all of the older generation present didn't like the production as ml.!£_h as the couple I have mentioned did, for there were some parts of the production that might have been offensive to many people. I myself saw 'very few leaving.

After seeing this prod9ction, I can see no reason for the city of Omaha not allowing the production into their "fair city". (I am sure that the Muse theatre or the Pussycat theatre are showing Walt Disney movJes now.) In "Hair" there were some pertinent ideas of much worth presented. I wouldn't be at all surprised if the very people who banned "Hair" from Omaha, went to Lincoln to see the production.

Anyone who ever gets the chance should see this production. It makes you think about some things. It is truly the spokesman of the youth of today. It's

Housemothers Out ·of Line?

Just how much authority doe& a housemother have? Can she just use her master key, and open all the rooms and check things whether someone is there or not? Does she have the authority to walk right into our rooms, and go through our personal items? Even if someone has lost something, it isn't right to go through everyone's room and personal items, as it has been done just lately. If this has to be done, then obtain a search warrant or the dean, but the housemother shouldn't act like a storm trooper.

SGA Meets, But Invalid·

The Student Governing Association of P.S.C. did not have a quorum Monday, so a business meeting was impossible. Vacancies in the organization, caused by ab· senteees, was the reason for the lack of a quorum.

The body tried to make several motions before it was finally pointed out by faculty advisor, Dr. Thomas Scherer that a quorum was not present and that therefore S.G.A. could not function. S.G.A. president, Steve Long said that the vacancies would be filled.

However, since no meeting could be held, the gathering was termed a discussion. The business reviewed included confirmation of new swimming hours on weekends, which are 15 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday, and formation of a committee to work on an open house idea. Ultimately, the latter idea was dropped, due to lack of interest.

-....

In the end it was decided that the new S.G.A. secretary Terri Fink, would contact the not represented, and mform them of their position, and their alternatives involving membership. A meeting should be possible next week.

Dr. Shelley's responsibility was the presentation of instruction in Interaction Analysis. He also lectured on Innovations in Teacher Education.

The conference was sponsorea by the Evaluative Programs for Innovative Curriculums Corporation. It was held at the Tang Verde Guest Ranch near Tuscon, Arizona. Over eighty educators throughout the U.S., Canada, and Mexico were in attendance.

Choir Will Make Tour

Late March is the date which has been selected for the annual Peru State College Concert tour. This year as in the past the tour will be under the direction of Mr Edward Camealy.

A concert has been scheduled at Beatrice Senior High School on Tuesday, March 28, and then on March 30, the choir will make a two day tour into Iowa.

A few changes have been made in the choir this year. A group of seven students under the direction of Karen Ramsey, has been selec;ted as a feature of the choir and will sing basically pop music, --with tlie accompanyment of a guitar. Also to be featured will be a Madrigal, which is made up of 20 voices and will sing precise English Madrigal selections.

This is the scene that takes place five days a week in the faculty lounge of the Administration Building. The "Faithful Four" Mrs Chapin, Mrs Groff, Business Office Secretary, Mrs Donna Giesecke, Business Office Secretary, and Mrs Lois Smith, Placement Secretary never miss a program of "As The World Turns." Exactly at 12:30a hush falls over the lounge as another exciting episode comes on.

Mrs Chapin is the prophet of the group, but she commented, "It's getting harder to figure out." Subdued comml).nts, mixed with knowing laughs are made between the secretaries throughout the half hour.

"I think there is every chance this marriage. can be saved!"

"Oh brother!"

"Well, there's no verdict to it, it's as plain as the nose on your face." Mrs Chapin knowlingly concludes.

Majors Hall Closed

Major's Hall has been closed now for a semester and will remain closed for at least this semester. Many of you are probably wondering why this has happened? To find the answer to this question, Mr George Wendall was consulted and he stated that the building was closed because, it needed a few repairs,' and since it wasn't needed for the housing of male students this year it was closed so repairs could be made.

Will Major's Hall ever be forgotten -by the male and sometimes female students who resided there? How could anyone ever forget the infamous battle of second floor east which

Jed to the end of the first semester war.

Who will ever forget some of the great men who have resided in the hall. Ever since it was erected in the early 1960's Major's Hall has been turning out some great men who will go on to become leaders of America, men who have learned about leadership by being R.A.'s and other who have learned by leading the men against the R.A.'s, and still others who chose to study while the fighting was going on. To these men the doors of Major's Hall will never be closed and their memories of this fine residence will. live long after the building has fallen.

Former Peru State College graduate, Dr. James E. Perdue, has received a leave grant from the Danforth Foundation to study developments and trends in higher education in the United States and Europe.

Dr. Perdue, President of the State Unive-rsity College at Oswego, New York is one of 20 college and university presidents honored with the grant. Selection of recipients is by invitation rather than by application. He received the award in recognition of past academic accomplishments and anticipated future leadership in higher education. He will begin his study at the Institute for the Study of Higher

Education, Calif., later continuing his study at Wright-Ingraham Institute, Colorado Springs, Colo. Upon completion of research at the two western institutes, he will travel to England, where he will study development of new technological institutes in that country during the past decade. Other countries he will study in are France, Spain, Italy and Denmark.

Cats Shot Down Title Hopes Fall

The University of Nebraska at Omaha cage squad managed to escape with a 74-69 basketball decision over feisty Peru Tuesday night February 1, at Peru. The loss all but erased the Peruvians' hopes of a Nebraska College Conference Title.

At the end of the opening ten minute mark, the big boys from the mini-U held a precarious 2320 lead under the performance of center Merlin Renner.

Peru remained close on the rebounding of Earl Brown, the combined shotting and rebounding of Ananias Montague, who shared game honors with Renner with 18, and key baskets by center Rex Beatty. Tom Froehlich, who finished with 15, kept the Pack in the contest when he was fouled while driving on a layup. The conversion knotted it at 35-35 with

1:40 left in the first half. Montague later tied it for the third time within a minute and a half, 37-37: on a tip-in. Coach Bob Hanson's cagers' however, rallied, retreating to the dressing room owners of a 41-37 lead.

'.fhe third quarter found the Peruvians hitting a dry spell as the Pack coulo only tally three baskets ir minutes while the Mavericks extended their lead to eight, 51-43. With 10:30 remaining they held a commanding 57-47 advantage.

It appeared pretty grim for local supporters as the Pack seemed to sputter and stall, falling behind at one point, 65-50 However, with 5:00 remaining, Mclntire's troopers began to lake charge. A hook shot by Beatty here, a jumpshot by Don Monzingo there closed it to five, 68-63, with 1: 54 left.

UN-O's five then started develop problems of their own they could only manage basket while Peru garnered t coming to within 70-67 with left on the clock, that was close as the home team c get. Stalling tactics by visitors forced the 'Cats to f UN-0 prevailing, 74-69. The victors -were lead Renner who had 18, John Ro with 16, two below his aver and 6-3 senior guard P Sieczkowski with 14. Si zkowski, incidentally, who le the conference in free thr with, 862, converted on charity tosses. Brown collected 13 rebo and ten points while Beatty scrappy guard Monzingo had nihe for the losers. P now 5-12, hopes to improve mark tonight against Cha State.

Bryan Traylon of Dana has converted the most free throws with 83. The Chadron State club, who are the defending Nebrq.ska College Champs who finished 188 last year, already have 18 games behind them to be among the state's busiest teams.

Chadron State To Invade

When the Cnadron State basketball team comes to town tonight for the big shoot-out, there are a few things to look for. Keep your eyes on number 21, Scott Jones, for openers. This is really flying high with l96 points through 18 games for a 22.0 average to lead his learn in scoring.

The other half of Chadron 's Dynamic Duo, Rick Brown, is also nearing the 400 point plateau with :l78 points and, has the best average, with a 22.2. He also leads his comrads in free throws, 78·105 for a .74:! average.

Huss Taylor has 174 rebounds this season, about 10 a game r9.7 i. Ananias Montague is averaging 14.5. Go get'em Ananias' The Pack has six more contests, three at home; Kearney Slate-February eighth, Bellevue-February 15th and the last home stand being against the Lancers of Mount Marty February 18th. The cagers' last five contests come within an eight day span as they meet Northwest Missouri State February lfith, the Owls of Tarkio February 21st and finishing out the season by challenging Wayne, February 23rd.

Doane Wins In Squeeze

Doane College defeated Peru Stale 65-63 in a double overtime game January 25.

After the lead changed hands several limes. Doane led with seconds left, but a costly mistake let the Bobcats lie the score after regulation time.

The game slowed down in the first overtime with each team scoring only two points. Doane led by four points during the second overtime but the Bobcats could only come within two.

Ananias Montague led the Bobcats wifh 22 points, while J{ogillio Douglas led the Tigers with 24.

Comment by

Bob Bowen

In the December 17 issue of the Ped, Dr. Gomon is quoted on the front page as saying, that he did not wish student representatives to administrative committees to be elected by the student body. Dr. Gomon did Qot say in that particular issue of the Ped how he would rather have those representatives chosen. He did make it clear that his administration does not want student representation on administra.tive committees which has the support of the student body, gained through the elective process.

·\ In my opinion, what Dr. Gomon is saying, is that he wants students on those cominittees who represent the administration, rather than the student body.

A man of great wisdom once said, "No.man can serve two masters." Consider the student who serves on one of these administrative committees. The student is on that committee because the administration allows him to be. He is not there because the student body elected him to represent its views before the members of that committee.

I fail to see how such a student represents the student body, when the student body had nothing to do with placing him i.n a position of representation. The administration, however, did have much to do with placing the student in such a positiQn.

ShoUld the student wish to maintain his seat on his committee, who does. he agree most readily with, who is he responsible to and finally, who does the student represent? Do you bite the hand that feeds you?

When is student representation not student representation? When the administration chooses the students whorepresent the students.

Govt. Plays Bingo?

About two weeks ago, a group of yoWlg men huddled aroWld a radio in room 105 at Delzell Hall and listened as our government played a game of. bingo with their lives.

In a so-called "land of the free", does the government have the right to control a man's morals and set odds on him coming back from, Vietnam as ail amputee or a casualty?

In my opinion, we must do everything in our power to put an end to this war by exercising our new right to vote for a man who will bring peace through victory, withdrawal, or compromise. And not one who de-escalates the war for purpose of reelection.

If there must be a war, let there be a volWlteer army. H a man wants to go to college; let him. If a man wants to marry and have a family, let him. Ha man wants to fight; let him. And if a man does not want to fight, let hini have this right. And if no ··one wants to fight, then. the government should take this hint and withdraw from fighting.

Last semester, after readmg an article in the Ped about all the things there were to do at Peru, Charlie Pavolis a native of ·Worcester Mass. decided that something'was still lacking here in Peru's weekend activit.ies. The facilities of the gyi;nnas1um were there, but inaccessible to the students here on weekends.

Charlie, with the help of Doctor Scherer, a concerned ,,. faculty member, and Tyrus Gilliam, a SGA memberwor_ked together in opening the gymnasium on weekends. The facilities are open on

Student Wives

"Let's get the student wives involved," was a statement by Becky Davis, president of student wives. She wants the married student wives to come and join this organization. They meet every other Monday night at 7:30 inthe west diningroom of the student center.

Next Monday, February 14, is a special day and the student wives decided to celebrate it with a Pot Luck dinner in the west diningroom of the student center.

Kearney Cuts It Close

By Jerry Steele

This business of one point home losses has got to cease. Kearney wriggled out an 88-87 basketball decision over Peru this past Tuesday night, February eighth at Peru. It was just a week ago that Chadron slipped past 70-69 on a last second shot by Rick Brown. The win tied the Antelopes, who were 17-8 last year, with the University of Nebraska at Omaha for the Nebraska College Conference lead with a 4-2 conference record. Peru now stands at 1-6. It was quite a hassle though, .as the final score indicates. ,

Peru Grapplers Crush Midland

Heaven's to Betsy, Coach Harlan Krein, the next time you have a wrestling meet at Peru, at le11st try to make it a little more interesting. Evidently the mere thought of squaring off with a Krein Commando was a fear worse than death as four matches were won by forfeit for Peru on their way to a 41-5 romp over Midland College Monday night, February 7. R. D. Arnold (118), Rick Black (126), Randy Hanson 034) and Ken Boettcher (142) rolled up points by merely being there, thus enabling Peru to open a 24--0 bulge before even being challenged.

Rod Wartman, who along with Rick Black and Larry Pracht 0 67) , are the only returning lettermen on the squad, decisioned his opponent, 4-3, in the 150 lb. bracket. Kim Tennal shutout Knot of Midland, 5--0, to make it 30--0.

Larry Pracht had little trouble with Warrior Hull, walking away with a 4-1 victorY: Dave Arnett (177) made it a rout, 39--0, by pinning his opponent. At 190 , Dean Ansley had the only draw

of the evening, 1-1, and heavyweight, Jim Rezac, pushed Peru's total to 41 with a 2-1 win.

Krein's Commando's now own a 7-2 record, their only losses belonging to Kearney, who they defeated in their last meeting Wayne. They have beaten Nebraska Wesleyan, Bellevue, Doane, JFK, Kearney and Midland, twice.

THE LIBRARY FOUND ACLASS RING FROM FAIRBURY JR. COLLEGE CLASS OF 1971

Louisiana State University has one of the first X-rated yearbooks. Included in the book was a photograph of ared, white, and blue marijuana cigarette; a series of satires on. such sanctions as motherhood, and four photos of nudes taken in art classes. The students love the book, but the state legislature is upset, to say the least.

To begin with, Peru had the Kropp boys, John and Tom, to contend with, and in.the end Tom proved to be the biggest thorn in the Packs' side. Big brother John entered the contest shooting a respectable .494 from · the field, averaging 19.2 a game. He finished with 22. Tom, meanwhile, was averaging 11 rebounds per game, he got his 11 rebounds along with 19 points. Little Kropp surprised me, he wasn't really all that good, then again he wasn't too bad. As they say, looks can be decieving. At 64 and 230 lbs., he appeared surprisingly agile.

The first half, for the most part, proved to be an endless stream of hurried shots and bad passes for both teams. With 10 minutes remaining, Earl Brown, fouled by little Kropp, cas'1ed in on a charity toss, knottmg it at 24-all. ·

· Shortly after, however, the Kearney machine started to move again. With 9:20 remaining they led by only two, 27-25. With 4:20 left they led by eight, 43-35. Time after time Brown, who worked the key well and finished with 15 points, scored on turn around jump shots. Ananias Montague connected to tie it for the third time, 45-45 with the clock reading 2: 23.

Coach Gerald Hueser's club

displayed good poise, however, _!lS Jerry Willis sunk one of his four baskets at the buzzer making it 53-52.

Ast!'? half opened, the : lilt their first 10 point leaci .;J-53, stretching it to 12, 65-53 with 17:00 remaining. A man-to-man defense proved to be to no avail as the Antelopes' bulge stayed at 10, 72-62 with the same amount of minutes remaining. Just when it appeared as though Kearney would run away with it, the Pack began to close the gap. Montague, who took game honors iwth 24 points and 16 rebounds began to catch fire. Hardworking Bob Bowen brought the Pack to within four,. 74-70, on a pretty 15-footer from the corner.

With 4: 25 left on the clock, the

score standing &2-76, thi really began to happen. St 6-5 forward Bob Jones sc important baskets, tallying of Kearney's final six po· Bowen drove the baseline another two of his 12 points reverse layup, cutting it basket, 87-85 with 31 se remaining. Mclntire's c got their final bid to win little Kropp was called palming, but victory number was not to be.

With 11 seconds left, Mont cut it to one, 88-87. Bowen intercepted an Antelope p wheeling and throwing it court to Don Monzingo, last instant villain Tom stepped in for an interception time ran out.

Chadron Nips 'Cats

A shot from the key, at the buzzer by Rick Brown gave Chadron a 70-69 victory over the Peru State Bobcats last Friday night.

After leading by 11 points at one time, Peru managed to squeeze to a 32-30 halftime lead. But Chadron led by Brown (20 points) and Scott Jones (14 points) fought back in the second half and the lead changed hands several times.

With less then two minutes remaining, the Bobcats held a seven point lead and the Eagles pµt on a full court press. The press was effective as the Eagles trailed by one in the last 14 seconds and held for a last shot when Brown scored for the win.

Rich Brown led Chadron 28 points and Scott Jones h 25 point effort before fouling in the last minute of play. Ananias Montague paced. Bobcats with 29 points, Earl Brown put in 13 and r· off 12 rebounds. The Eagles stayed iii. tention for the NCC croWn the victory and now stand at 9, while the Bobcats' record to 5-13.

PSC Students Attend KANEDCO Conference

At the recent Kanedco conference in Dodge City, Kansas, the question of student involvement was tackled. Peru took part in this conference along with 21 other schools from Colorado, Oklahoma, Nebraska, and Kansas. The conference was held Mon. and Tues. February 14 and 15. The program opened with a talk by Dr. Don G. Creamer, Dean of Students at El Centro College, in Dallas, Texas. Dr. · Creamer spoke on how his student government was run, and how the students at El Centro College get involved. Afterwards everyone was divided into small groups; with Dr, Thomas Scherer leading one group.

Dr. Scherer's group discussed the two main issues, student mvolvement, and Student Government power, but could come to no real decision.on what to do concerning these two vital issues.

A banquet was held Monday night with U. S. Congressman William Roy, M. D., present as speaker. Dr. Roy talked about the new responsibility of the 18 year old vote. Tuesday morning the small groups met again, and reported to each other on what they had done.

Many students at the conference were disappointed in the amount of time alloted for student involvement. The PSC students returned home late Tuesday afternoon.

"I find the older I get the easier it is to be a Christian."

Peditorial

I wonder how much pride we really have for our school. The heckling and obscene language which flows forth 'from the Peru stands at basketball games illustrates poor sportsman-like conduct and the infantile game of name calling. Those who use such tactics in order to gain attention to themselves and PSC must certainly gleam with pride. Let's not stop with one example of "pride and goodwill". Guests of students and prospective students have received abominable treatment from one housemother. Her smiling welcome and congenial personality all but castigate visitors for intruding into her secure domain where she may bellow and ctirse at will. She is a shining example of the peace, tranquility, and friendliness which are to be found on this campus.

These reflections upon the college do not mirror an at.mostpher of higher education where students may thrive by their total environment. If you were educators or high school students visiting the PSC campus and were confronted with such happenings, what would be your opinion of the school? Would this be a school you would recommend to your students or have, interest in yourself?

These and other similar atrocities must be halted. Pride for ,and in our school must be revived in order tQ secure the, longevity of this institution. This · activating force cannot be a few students and professionals but must include the entire college community. Therefore, the call goes out to you, the college community, to stand up for your school and help to reinitiate the practice of pride for and in Peru State College.

Denny Brooks Febr. 2

Denny Brooks, a rock concert singer with a magnetic personality, will be appearing at Peru State on February 24, at 8:00 p.m. in the College Auditorium.

Mr Brooks' act actually is a conbination of rock and country music, plus a little gospel material, along with some folk songs written by some of the best contemporary folk writers in the business.

Brooks, a 29-year-old Californian, has been touring the country for about 11 years and has shared billing with groups such as The First Edition, The Grass Roots, The Carpenters,

The Cowsills, Crow, Badfinger, The 5th Dimension and many others.

In letters written to Variety Theater International Inc., the agency Brooks is affiliated with, entertainment, concert, and activities chairmen have hailed Brooks' concerts as the best that their College or University has seen in many years. One reason for this seems to be that besides his great'sinl!inl! talent. Brooks· · has a great personality that seems to captivate his audiences and hold them for the entirety of his act. He is obviously a great entertainer.

Denny Brooks describes his

singing in this way: "I'm ballad singer, My greatest te dency is to slow things down \ you can hear on his magnific version of Joni Mitchell's "B Sides Now"). The rock tracks the album scared me to dea but it was OK because the so were really important."

Brooks is a showman whos performances have captured th interest of audiences all over th United States. He has appear at many colleges and unive sities in the mid-west, and h received some standin ovations. PSC students will g their chance to see him Thursday of next week. Th performance is sponsored b SCB and Student Programs,

Night Out

Kiwcmi s Hosts Pancake Feed For Faculty

A semi-formal dinner and dance will be held Saturday, February 19, for the faculty and their guests. The dinner begins at 7p.m. in the west dining room of the Student Center and the dance is from 9 p.m. to 1 p.m. in the cafeteria. The "We Three" combo will provide the entertainment. Admission is $4.00 per couple.

. Peru Kiwqnis are holding their annual Pancake Feed Sat., February 19 at the Peru City Hall. The feast is scheduled to run from 7a.m. to 2 p.m. Tickets for this event may be purchased from any Kiwanis member or at the door. The price of the tickets is $1.00 for adults and .50 for children 12 and unct,er.

To the student who wanted to know why the Ped should be published every week when three-fourths of it is a:ds, here is the answer, The Ped is not threefourths ads! The ads in last week's issue added up to onefourth of the paper. That leaves three-fourths of the paper for straight news. If the person who wrote that letter would take the time to figure up the inches, he would see .that his conclusion about the Ped is wrong. The ads also pay for part of the printing which cut the college's printing expense. If the paper was printed every two weeks it would contain a majority of past news. No one is interested in old news! The paper is also used to inform students of coming events. That would be very difficult to do with a paper printed every two weeks,. when considering the time it takes to print the paper.

The Ped is also used as an ·educational device. It gives journalism majors valuable newspaper experience and helps prepare them for their careers. When the advantages of having a weekly paper are weighed against the disadvantages, it will be evident that the college -is benefitted by a weekly Ped - Carol McCabe.

The food in the Peru State Cafeteria has been the subject of unjust criticism in the past.

During the Student Government Association's three-day trip to Dodge City, Kansas, for the KANEDCO conference, I found the food to be inferior to that served in either the Bob Inn or the cafeteria.

Four of our meals were eaten in cafes in Kansas, the other three in the cafeteria at Dodge City Community College, none of which could be termed "average."

On Monday evening a semiformal dinner was served in the cafeteria at the college. The food, to say the least, was not of good quality. Being a commuter; I eat only one meal a day on the PSC campus. However, I can honestly say the average noon meal in the cafeteria is superior to the semi-formal dinner we were served in Dodge City.

Best Track Performances of 1970

by Jerry Steele

Montague Nears Siefkes Avera

1970 wa§ a very good year. That year three records were tied by the track team; the 100yard dash, the 440-yard dash and the Mile Steeplechase. A year which saw Naomis Ward and Elmer Reeves running the century in :09.7, thus tying a 30 year-<>ld record set by Jim Mather of Arapahoe in 1940. Reeves ran the 220 in 22.3 at Tarkio.

In the 440, Calvin Smith had his best afternoon in a duel meet with Doane racing to a 49.l clocking. It 'seems only fitting then that Smith should hold the .. st time in the 880 last spring, 53.7 in the Kansas Relays.

O' Peru's answer to Jim Ryun, Jack Weyers, recorded 4:08.l at the Kansas Relays, 9:11 in the two-mile at the Arkansas Relays and 13 :52.0 in the three-mile at the District II NAIA meet to capture three.

Tark .IO·PerU.

Leon Golden broke the tape in :15.6 at the Doane Relays in the 120 high-hurdles while Bob BoWen finished the 440 hurdles in 59.0 at the Nebraska College -Conferences meet for the best mark there. Bob also had a 1:06:9 clocking in the 480 shuttle hurdles in the Midland Relays to lead his teammates there.

Dave Harris tied an old record in the Mile Steeplechase with 4:56.9 at the Kearney Relays where he also had times of :44.2 in the 440 relay and 1:32.6 in the 880 relay.

The Mile relay team, consisting of Smith, Nate Parks, Dave Bierbaum and John Winkel teamed up for a 3:18.4 at the Doane Relays. The ·Sprint medley team of Jim Hinton, Bierbaum, Winkel and Smith finished 3:29.2 also at Doane and Drake Relays.

In the field events, Greg Winslow pole vaulted 12'1" at Nebraska Wesleyan. Mike Mulvaney best toss in the discus,

Missouri State.

Naomis Ward sprinted 70 yards in :07.3 at Northwest Missouri and :07.9 at Kearney in the 75-yard dash. Leon Golden completely dominated the hurdles; :07.4 in the 60-yard lows and :08.2 in the 60-yard highs, both at Northwest Missouri. :09.8 in the 75-yard highs was accomplished at Kearney.

Calvin Smith did it again in the 440, running the quarter in :51.3 at Missouri. In the half-mile, John Winkel ran a 2:01.9 at Kearney. 4:23 was the time set by Jack Weyers at Northwest and 9:28.2 in the two-mile at Kearney

The Mile relay squad also had their day at the Missouri state school with 3.29.5 there.

Mike Mulvaney tossed the iron ball 48'22" at UN-Omaha. In the broad jump, Mike Dukes leaped 20' 4" while Bruce Brummer high-jumped 5'10112" both at Missouri.

Bernard Brown still leads in rebounding, averaging 18.9.

Terry Cadwell drilled in a 10footer with three seconds remaining to give Bellevue a 6866 decision over a flat Peru basketball team Tuesday, February 15th.

So much for that so-called home court advantage. The Pack missed on too many free throws - three too many to be exact - as they converted only 14 of 29. The Bruins, on the other hand,hit an amazing 18 out of 19. In the end, those .co.nversions from the foul line proved to be the deciding factor. Fw.my, but you don't think about those misses at the time, only until it is too late.

The cagers had all kinds of problems. Ananias Montaque hit a co1a speu early m u1t: game before recovering to tally 24 points to take game honors for the umpteenth time.

Earl Brown missed numerous close shots as the Peruvians trailed by nine, 29-20 with 3:10 remaining in the first half. Baskets by Montaque, frosh Mike DeRuntz and Tom Froehlich cut the margin to five 33-28; at the half.

Neither squad could gain the upper hand in the opening

minutes of the second half. A free throw by Bellevue's Larry Cihal tied the score at 38-all, the beginning of a close series of ties.

Four turn-<>vers in the last four minutes, two coming in the final minute and a half, allowed the Bruins to forge the seventh and final deadlock at 66-66 with 17 seconds.

The Bruins then wisely worked the ball for the last shot, finding Cadwell open who let it fly cleanly through the net.

Looking back for a moment, the personal wars got hotter in the last half as the contest turned into a give-and-take affair. Bruin Dan Howard lost both battles- in rebounding and points to Montague. Ananias gathered in 11 rebounds and 24 points while Howard could muster only eight rebounds and 11 points. Forward Ed Larson got the best of Brown with 12 rebounds and 19 points. Brown finished with eight retrieves and seven points.

Peru, which has failed to win at home this month, has its last opportunity tonight against Mount Marty in the home game .finale of the season.

The wrestling squad expanded its season record to 9-2 while steam-rolling over Concordia College, 35-2, Wednesday, February ninth, at Seward. freshmen, like children, are supposed to be seen but not heard. Someone had better try and explain that to Ken Boettcher. Ken is undefeated through 11 matches, having diswsed of Bruce Richers of Concordia, 4-2. The 142-pounder has racked up a total of 54 mat points while · surrendering only nine.

R. D. Arnold started the onslaught by beating his opponent by five, 9-4. At 126 lbs. Rick Black finished his match with the most points, 20-1 shellacking Doug Awe. With only six seconds remaining in the first period, Dean Anesty 190, pinned his man.

European Jobs

, Job opportunities in Europe this summer Work this summer in the forests of Germany, on construc.tion in Austria, on farms in Germany, Sweden and. Denmark, on road construction in Norway, in Industries in France and Germany, in hotels in Switzerland.

Well there are these jobs available as well as jobs in Ireland, England, France, Italy and Holland are open by the consent of the governments of these countries to American university students coming to Europe the next summer.

Every year, the program has been expanded to include many more students and jobs. Already, many students have made application for next summer jobs. AmericanEuropean Student Service (on a non-profitable basis) is offering

daytime hours.

Earlier in the meeting a report on the Kanr.dco conference was given, and it was decided to have an open meeting concerning suggestions for the constitutiOJ! reviSion. Room wa:s ruscussed and Mike Kelly will research this question and report next week.

Lastly the speakers committee reported. Board of Trustees member Ward Reesman of Falls City will be here Thursday March 2 at 8:30 p.m. Students should take note of this time, and realize that this is as good a chance as one will get to express his or her feelings concerning the whole college situation.

Other speakers scheduled to speak in the near future are Senators Wilste and Carstons on March 6. and Omaha Councilwoman Betty Abbott on April 12.

After this report the meeting .was adjourned.

Open to Students

these jobs to students for Germany, Scandinavia, England, Austria, Switzerland, France, Italy, and Spain. The jobs consist of forestry work, child care work (females onlyl; farm work, hotel work (limited number available), construction work, and some other qualified jobs requiring more specialized training.

The purpose of this program is to afford the student an opportunity to get into real living contact with the people and customs of Europe. In this way, a concrete effort can be made to learn something of the ciI!ture of. Europe. In return for his or her work, the student will receive his or her room and board, plus a wage. However, student should keep in mind that they will be working on the European r<'onomy and wages will

naturally be scaled accordingly. The working conditions (hours, safety, regulations, legal protection, work permits) will be strictly controlled by the labor ministries of the countries involved.

In most cases, the employers have requested especially for American students. Hence, they are particularly interested in the student and want to make the work as interesting as possible.

They are all informed of the intent of the program, and will help the student all they can in deriving the most from his trip to Europe.

Please write for further information and application forms to: American-European Student-Service, Box 34733, FL !1490 Vanduz, Liechtenstein (Europe).

Alcohol, pollution, drugs, and child abuse have been the topics covered by field trips to Omaha, taken by the Contemporary Social and Political Problems class under the direction of Dr. George Schottenhamel.

The purpose of the field trips is to give the students first hand knowledge of social problems.

When covering alcohol, the group visited.the Island of Hope and the Open Door Mission. In the past it has been the job of the Mission to give food and shelter to those who need it. This objective has now been broadened to incfude rehabilitation.

The Island affords to alcoholic;s the opportunity to quit his habit of drinking. Medical aid and guidance assistance are given those who enter the program. The alcoholics who enter either of the programs do so on a voluntary basis and are under no obligations to complete either program.

Omaha's pollution problem arises mostly from automobiles. It is estimated that on the

average every family owns three cars. Large industries have taken initiative and installed pollution control devices within their plants. The City Council meeting attended by the students, also covered the process of condemning buildings to give way to new enterprise.

The third visit to Omaha by the class was spent at the police department. During the past three years drug arrests in Omaha have doubled each year. Seventy per cent of the drug arrests are for marijuana with barbiturates and amphetimines accounting for the second highest arrest rate. The traffic of hard drugs has increased but not too greatly. Child abuse is one of the hardest offenses to prove. The victims are children and many times infants who cannot speak. Doctors, though required by law to report abuse cases, often hestitate to do so. The juvenile department handles these cases. A tour of the police station completed the trip.

When the dorm president's were asked questions con· cerning this, their responses were very favorable toward NO· HOURS.

Kathy Boyle, dorm president from Morgan Hall, stated that , the girls have been most cooperative, and she is very happy about the success, besides the fact it gives· the girls more freedom.

Charlene Harrahill__, president from Davidson-Palmer Hall, also stated that she was very

· happy with the success in NOHOURS.

Many questions were asked about NO-HOURS. One was concerned with sneaking in girls at night ON-Hours. Both dorms were happy to say that it hasn't happened as far as they know.

The alphabetical order !Jf the names of those girls on the plan determines who will stay up each night. Chairwomen Ann O'Connor and Jean,nine Davis keep charts up to date on who is to stay up each night. It has been reported only three times that girls have forgotten their duties.

Wininger To New Office

Dr. Darrell Wininger moved into his new office in the basement of the education building last week. Wininger's previous office was in the adm in is tr at ion building. The move makes Dr. Wininger closer to his classes which are mainly in the education building and gives added room to the administration staff for office space. The move seems to have served all concerned a great favor and makes it easier for the students to find Dr. Wininger when he is needed as an adviser. or for class help.

Students Judge Speech Contest

Tecumseh was the destination for four speech students last week who were accompanying Mr J. D. Levitt.

The reason for the trip was to judge a Legion sponsored speech contest held at Tecumseh JrHigh.

The four students traveling to observe the contest were: Lin Dee Raymond, Diane Forke, DeVoe Manning and Bob Wernsman. ,

The topic for the annual oratory was any specific part of the constitution.

Lambda Group Takes Tour

Control Data and the Omaha Box Company were visited February loth by seventeen members of Phi Beta Lambda and their sponsor, Mr Russell Beldin.

At both companies the group received extensive tours and briefings by personnel and management. The keenness of competition which exists in the business world today was very evident.

The .· students found that today's businessman is something other than a "man in a gray flannel suit."

The students lunched at Coniglia 's where they were guests of Omaha Box Company.

When Bill Taylor asked Larry Morrison if he would care to help him take football statistics last September, Larry agreed. Taylor eventually quit his post and the now departed Sports Information Director Don Carlile, appointed him as Taylor's successor as Student Statitician.

Morrison, however, new at his post needed help, for while he .was busy taking yardage statistics, someone had to watch the play by play. Enter one Tim Becker.

When he became the sports editor in the latter part of November, he needed help. He couldn't keep track of the numbers of field goals attempted and missed, turnovers, a shot chart etc. without missing other just-as-important factors, no way.

- Morrison, a sophomore majoring in Business, says about his job, "When I was in high school, I wasn't really interested in sports, but with this experience I've learned a lot about the games which has built my interest." During the basketball games, Morrison tends to the chores of keeping a shot chart, field goals, and turnovers while Becker keeps track of the number of rebounds, fouls, and free throws.

Immediately following the games, their work is only half done. They phone in the score to the Omaha World-Heraldand the Lincoln-Journal Star newspapers, radio stations WOW, KFAB and KMA, Shenandoah. Iowa. The tv stations notified of the game's outcome are KETV, KMTV, WOW-TV and KOLN (Lincoln). The AP ·and UPI wireservices are also contacted.

Every Tuesday, statistics must be sent to the National Association of· Intercollegiate Athletics, the main office located in Kansas City, Missouri, and to the NAIA District II secretary.

Newsletters also must be sent to requesting Sports Information Directors at various schools. These letters contain a brief summary of the game; decisive factors as well as team and conference records.

Becker feels that it is ex· · tremely important to not get excited during a heated contest. He, unlike Morrison, has always

been interested in sports.

"I really enjoy my work and I really do think that the students should take a more active part in the activities that we do have. Becker, a native of Exeter, Nebraska, who worked alongside Morrison on the 1971· 72 basketball brochure, al8o plans to help assemble the 1972 spring brochure.

Ben Rogge, the present Sports Information Director at Special Services, says of the pair, "They are very efficient. Even though they miss the excitement during the game, they seem to enjoy it."

When asked if they would care to perform the same function again next year, they both answered yes, their one concern being who will eventually succeed them.

Neuman Club Plans Made

Future projects including a retreat was the topic for discussion in the only Neuman Club meeting held this semester. Other tentatively scheduled meetings were cancelled b&!ause Father McCabe was away on business in Omaha.

Plans for the possible at -· tendance of a reatreat in Waverly, Nebraska, by club members was discussed. The retreat will beheld on a weekend in the near future.

Any Catholic over eight years old interested in attending the retreat should contact a member of the Neuman Club. A fifteen dollar fee will be required. Father McCabe will obtain additional information which he will relay at the next meeting.

Wrestlers- Starving But Well-trained

Have you heard the cafeteria food is improving immensley? If so, don't start celebrating yet. It's just a rumor being spread by the malnourished wrestlers. Many people wonder if wrestling is an individual or a team sport. Actually it's both. The wrestler is on his own from the moment he walks on the mat until the buzzer sounds. True, he may get advise and en· · couragement from his coach, his teammates, and the crowd. Yet; the outcome of the match is entirely dependent upon the wrestler's own performance, And at the end of the match the wrestler leaves with the knowledge that he has helped his team toward a victory or a defeat. There seem to be several popular misconceptions regarding the sport of wrestling. For example, "Only the strong survive," This is not necessarily the case, strength is not always the key factor in a match. Rather the winner probably ias a balance of skill, speed, experience, stamina, and determination,· as well as strength. Granted, some wrestlers get along well using just their but the eventual

mon.

Weight, or the loss of it, is one of the most serious problems for a wrestler. It is not uncommon for the average grappler to lose 20 to 25 lbs. a season. The theory behind this is· that weight loss enables a wrestler to become quicker and more agile. Also, weight loss assists the wrestler in reaching prime physical condition. It takes extreme dedication for the wrestler to reduce and maintain this weight for the. length Of a season.

So, the next time you see a hollow cheeked, hungry-eyed wrestler mentally devouring your <linner, smile. For now you know the sacrifices a wrestler must make for Peru.

Ped: What is the S.G.A. doing now?

S.L.: Aside from working on the constitutional revisions the S.G.A. is working on room inand extending the male visiting hours at the womens dorms.

Ped: Do you see the S.G.A. as a worthwhile organization?

S.L.: As I said earlier this year, the S.G.A. has a great potential for action if people would get involved and help out. Right now I'd say that the S.G .A. is worthwhile for those people who get involved.

Lastly Doug Fritz reported on a discussion he had with Mr Allan Shipley concerning the radio station funds allocated last week by the S.G.A. Mr Shipley said he doesn't believe the S.G.A. has $800 to allot to any organization. The money was not approvedthroughMr Shipley and within two weeks the necessary figures will be known and a decision will then be made.

Dr. 5cherer says:

Peru State College's Student Government Association's main goal for the remainder of the year is to revise the present constitution. A group of SGA m'ember.-s have been appointed to serve as the constitutional Committee, headed by Diane Forke.

Other colleges have been contacted by the committee to send copies of their constitutions. Suggestions will also be taken before presenting a new constitution to the student body in an open hearing.

The SGA has been meeting regularly on Tuesday evenings at 6:00 in the Fine Arts Building, Room 212. The meetings are open to the student body.

When asked what role he feels he should assume as· the SGA sponsor, Dr. Thomas Scherer commented, "My role should be guidance and direction, but not dictatorship."

Rich Watson: "I really don't know what it. has done for me, except in the case of the new weekend hours of the gym."

Vic Vega: "The SGA is supposed to be the voice of the students; as a voice, I don't hear anything.

Peru State has received an award for distinguished achievement by the American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education (AACTE). The award was presented in · Chicago on February 24, to PSC for introducing the Nebraska Head Start Supplementary program, a program which is innovative in meeting the needs of low income, disadvantaged students.

The award, one of 10 given at the association's annual meeting, recognizes excellence in teacher education.

Participants in the Peru State project are typically middleaged working mothers who have family responsibilities and many are also members of minority groups. The Head Start program offers the chance to improve paraprofessional skills, and at the completion of 64 credit hours the participants receive an Associate in Arts degree.

Denise Nebola and Judy Frech: "They got me no hours."

Gordon Thomson: "SGA never listens to the voice 'of the students" "They will listen but doesn't enforce or even try what students ask for."

Tyrus Gilliam: "As a member it has taught me that it is needed and that more members are needed that will represent the students points of view and not there own." "One should be more open-minded in SGA."

Peditorial

Following the recent Denny Brooks concert, I overheard many comments. Unfortunately, few of them were favorable. If you were there, you probably ·witnessed the large segments of the audience leaving during the performance.

When considering the ad.verse remarks, two questions are raised in my mind.

First of all, I wonder if any of those people who were anxious to condemn the work of the SCB, who is responsible for contracting our entertainment, ever considered joining the board and perhaps obtaining what they consider to be better talent?

Secondly, have these same people ever begun to ponder all that is involved in securing the concerts we presently have?

When we have a concert, it is through the tedious work of the SCB and not the simple process of notifying some entertainer and being secure in the knowledge that he will appear on stage. Many performers discover the size of PSC and it's obscure locality. It is only logical to assume that this must make a well-known performer hesitant to appear.

So, the next time you have a worthwhile complaint concerning the manner in which your entertainment fees are being spent, perhaps it would be more sensible to employ the.channels open to us and see if positive results are possible.

We all realize that leaning back and criticizing is not too difficult, even a third-grader can do that. But, continued under-the-breath mumbling has never been known to accomplish anything of any merit.

DISCussions

by Frank D'Addesa

Barbra Joan Streisand (Columbia KC 30792) is a new album by Barbra Joan Streisand. a more appropriate name for the album could have been Barbra Joan Streisand's Carole King-John Lennon Songbook, since five of the twelve songs on the album are written by the two· artists.

Add also the fact that she is attired in expensive hippie garb one can get the impression that Miss Streisand is entering the rock music area in order to attract the 25 and under age crowd.

"Beautiful", "Where You Lead'', and "You've Got A Friend" are the Carole King songs done and done okay. "Love" and "Mother" are the Lennon songs· she does her versions of. "Mother" has to be the best female version of the song (Lennon, of course, does the best male version), while "Love" is mediocre.

But for some reason this is. not Barbra's kind of music. She ends the first side with ''One Less Bell To Answer" and "A House Is Not A Home" in a Hal Davie-Burt Bacharach melody. This is the best cut off the record ad the style seems more appropriate for her.

A2 by 3foot poster of Barbara is also incltided in the pack.

Elton John has another winner in Madman Across The Water (UNI 93120). John along with partner Bernie Taupink p_robably the best writing team smce Lennon and Mc Cartney, wrote all the songs. Also credit producer Gus Dudgeon and Paul Buckmaster who arranged and conducted the music.

It's hard to pick the best cuts

LITTLE MAN ON CAMPUS

Beer Bill Voted -Down

Peru State College lost the opportunity to sell beer on. campus when Legislative Bill 1092 was defeated Monday. The bill, voted down 30 to 12, provided that the restriction for the sale, at retail, of any alcoholic liquor shall not apply to colleges or universities.

·13hall incur no civil or criminal liability by reason of having made such diagnostic examination or rendered such treatment. The state or local director of health shall incur no civil or criminal liability by reason of any adverse reaction to medication administered.

The bill should be voted on again soon in the Nebraska Legislature.

-encompasses those involved in the journalism practicum program.

The job of Issue Editor is far from being smooth and untroubled. Generally, he discovered he is Issue Editor three weeks in advance, so that as many arrangements as possible can be made beforehand.

One of these arrangements that must be taken care of is finding material for prospective journalists to write stories about, and then assigning these stories to the various students in the journalism classes. He is also obliged to decide ten days before the paper is to be printed and what pictures he wants to have accompany the stories.

Any stories to be printed in the Friday edition are usually turned in on Tuesday morning. After checking the article for grammatical and spelling errors, it is the job of the Newspaper Editing class to write headlines depending on whether it is to be a one or two column story.

This edited copy is taken to the Nebraska City News-Press on Tuesday afternoon the Issue Editor, accompanied by the .Editor and Mr Browning, the journalism instructor and Pedagogian advisor, travel to Nebraska City. They then recheck the copy for typing errors and begin to lay each of the stories out in the order seen by the students each Friday. This process is generally completed in three to four hours.

on the album because all are good. But the better ones have to be "Tiny Dancer'', a beautiful love son gdedicated to his girl Maxine. And "Levon" and "Indian Sunset" with its surprise ending are a couple others. Also receiving honorable mention is "All The Nasties", as Elton does a great job on piano and his backing bocala are also great.

Abooklet with the words of the songs and pictures of Elton John's gang make up the center of the album. Madman Across The Water is Elton John at his best. Try it, you'll like it.

A picture of a bent old man carrying a bunch of sticks is the cover of Led Zeppelin IV. (Atlantic SC 7208). Inside are four symbols which I guess represent each of the four members of the group. The centerfold of the album shows an old man on top of a high mountain with a lantern in his hand looking down on a small village.

Strange indeed, also strange is that it looks as if Led Zeppelin is finally getting into some good rock music. It is. possible that this could be their best album, which isn't saying too much.

But anyway a few numbers such as "Black Dog", "Rock and Roll" and "Misty Mountain Hop" are the better ones on the disc.

The bill, introduced by Sam Klaver, 9th District; Eugene T. Mahoney, 5th District; Harold T. Moylan, 6th District; on January 4, was referred to the Government and Military Committee. The Bill in part states, that, "No alcoholic liquor, other than beer, shall be sold for consumption on the premises within three hundred feet from the campus of any college or university in the state."

VD Bill Sent Back

Legislative Bill 1096 was sent back to the legislature Tuesday by a 30 to 0 vote.

The bill, to permit the treatment of venereal disease to any person under twenty years of age, had been passed Monday by the Nebraska legislature. The bill originally introduced into the legislature January 4 by Wally Barnett Jr. of 26th District was referred to the committee on Public Health and Welfare.

Bill 1096 allows a person twenty years of age to receive treatment for venereal disease without the consent of parents.

Bill 1096 reads in part, "The state or local director of Health, may, with the consent of such person who is ·hereby granted the right of giving such consent, make or cause. to be made a diagnostic examination for venereal disease and prescribe for and treat such person for venereal disease.

/How The Ped· Is Put To Bed

By BOB WERNSMAN

While reading a story in the Pedagogian, have you ever considered all that is included in it's creation each week? It is more. than simply accumulating some stories, sticking them together and printing them.

In the past, there has been an editor, who each week with the assistance of a few on the staff, put the paper together in time for the Friday morning edition.

This past semester though, the format was changed slightly. There is still an Editor-in-Chief, but in addition, there was created the position of Issue Editor. Being Issue Editor was a weekly responsibility of the various students in the Newspaper Editing class to give them the experience of being the editor for one week.

According to Mr Alan Shipley, Business Manager of the college, rather than following the directions of the nightwatchman, they drove on the grass.

They had been instructed to drive on the sidewalk. Since the grass was soft due to the melting ·snow, it was soft and vulnerable to damage.

Mr Shipley said that the group, which included two members of a group which did the same thing last year, will not receive payment for their performance until they reimburse the college for the damages which they caused.

The night-watchman reported that he had to leap out of the way, or he would have been struck by the vehicle. Shipley added that had the nightwatchman been able to remove his gun from the holster, he would have shot their tires

Siefkes Still Leads Three Peru Eagers Listed

Through 24 games Dennis Siefkes of Wayne continues to lead in categories, according to the latest release of basketball statistics from the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics. The 6-7 junior has ;averaged 26.2 points, scoring on more than 55 per cent of his field goals and leads Wayne with 11 rebounds per contest. Ananias Montague remains in second place, the Peru Stater scoring at a 22.9 clip.

Guard Don Monzingo is in eighth place on the field goal list, 53-108 for .491.

The battle for the lead in free throw shooting goes on. The last time he left the charity stripe, Fred Nash of Concordia had taken over the lead from Paul Sieczkowski of the University of Nebraska at Omaha.

Sieczkowski, however, has regained his number one ranking, converting 60-73 for a sparkling .822. Nash is right behind with 73-89 for .820. Chances are thought that. Jim

INTRAMURAL·

"Right on!" was the response of Kris Rotter, a member of the Peru State Womens' Basketball team, when asked if she thought professional basketball teams should be organized for women.

Peru State students expressed a variety of opinions on the idea of pro teams for women. Some thought that professional teams would be the next step since there are already ·teams organized at both the high school and college levels.

The replies ranged from "It's great!" to "It will never work!" Women's Lib seemed to be an important factor in some of the answers.

One girl stated, "I think men as well as other women would enjoy seeing competition between womens' teams. Why can't women play professional basketball if men are allowed to?·"

The majority of the girls interviewed thought women should be able to have pro teams if they wanted to. Most of the boys seemed to think womens' pro teams could be organized but they wouldn't be as profitable and exciting as mens' pro teams. Jim Taylor said that "Mens' basketball has been in the spotlight for so long I don't believe womens' pro basketball would draw enough attendance to be financially profitable."

Phil Scharp agreed that- there could be professional basketball teams for women, but he didn't think they would ever be better to see than mens' pro teams. He felt.that not enough people would watch to make it worthwhile.

An intramural swimming meet will be held Monday, March 13, at 7:00 p.m. in the college pool. The deadline for entering the meet is Tuesday, March 7, at 11:30 a.m. Substitutions may be made after this deadline, but no new applicants will be admitted.

PSC Plays Important Roll

In Head Start Program

The year 1968 was a year of violence and protest in America. · Colleges were faced with the challenge of making their programs responsive to pressing social, educational and economic problems.

Peru State College accepted this challenge by initiating and · administering a program for disadvantaged people.

This is why P.S.C. was the recipient of the "Excellence in Teacher Education - 1972 Distinguished Achievements Award," for seeking to reform and introduce innovation in teacher education.

The Nebraska Head Start Supplementary Training Program, under the direction of Dr. Rex Shelley, program director, was initiated during 1968. Mr Eldon Smith, assistant director, assumed duties with the program in 1970.

Supplementaty Training is a national program administered by Supplementary Training Associates. Mrs Luvenia Sanders, currently working with the program in Peru was formerly a trainee from Omaha and assisted in the national program. The contracting institution fo,· the program in Nebraska is Peru State College.

There are three basic functions of the program: improve instruction in the Head Start centers; provide career development opportunities; and

most importantly, encourage institutional change in colleges. This · program serves Head Start staffs including teachers, teacher aides, bus drivers, cooks and social service aides.

College-based instructional programs have been initiated in order to help low-income paraprofessionals become more effective in the Head Start centers.

Participants in the program are typical middle-aged mothers with family responsibilities, and often belong to a minority group. In order to carry out training in each area, cooperative relationships with local colleges and universities were developed. Included among these are: Chadron State, Fairbury Junior College, Kearney State, Nebraska Western, U.N. at Lincoln, and U.N. at Omaha.

One of the m11jor accomplishments of the program has been the development of an Associate in Arts degree in Early Childhood Education. This program was produced with the assistance of entollees, CAP directors, Head Start officials and college personnel who worked along with experts in child development and childhood education during the developmental phase.

A major aspect which this program has been able to illustrate is that the success of an educational program depends

on the knowledge, dedication program depends on the knowledge, dedication and skill of the teacher. ·

Some faculty members have been recruited from the local communities. If qualified teachers were available from among the many minority groups being served, they have been employed.

Due to the flexibility of the program, the college is entitled to recruit and select the most qualified person for each teaching assignment.

Included in the program are classes suited, not to the college time-table, but rather to the individual and his availability concerning time and location. Depending on the locations served, classes are generally held on campus, in churches, public schools and in Head Start centers.

Recommendations concerning location of classes, course sequence and selection of faculty are made by the Career Development Committees. In this way, the people involved and being served are insured a voice in the operation of the program.

The two-year program for an Associate in Arts degree includes General Education, Early Childhood Education, supporting field and elective courses.

Student Fees Discussed

A recent legislative bill proposed that all student fees be prohibited in the colleges and universities in Nebraska. The bill arose from the controversy between the Daily Nebraskan University of Nebraska's newspaper) and the Nebraska legislators questioning the paper's editorial use of four letter words.

According to Barry Pilger, the Editor-in-c;:hief of the Daily Nebraskan, the major controversy.arose over the World Revolution Conference being held at the University of Nebraska .at Lincoln and the editorials supporting that conference.

ThE: Conference will host such personalities as Bobby Seale of the Chicago Eight to lecture. The Conference will be held at the University March 17 and 18.

The Daily Nebraskan is supported by mandatory student fees which Bill 1271 is proposed to prohibit. The bill would not only. stop the collection of mandatory student fees at the University in Lincoln, but at all the colleges and Universities throughout the state.

According to Barry Pilger the reason that the bill· is state wide is that Senator Stromer, who introduced the bill into the legislature, is playing political games. "Stromer has created a political football," Pilger stated, "and it still has air. Stromer has sights on D.C."

LB 1271 is opposed, according to Pilger, because it would hamper the student's freedom to have what they want, like the World Revolution Conference at Lincoln.

The Nebraska Student Government Association composed of student governments throughout the state, unanimously ·opposed the bill at a recent meeting of the Association. The chairman of the Nebraska Student Government Assocation and Pilger, along. 'Vith other students also testified opposing the bill ata legislative hearing concerning the bill.

In an interview with the Omaha World Herald Pilger stated, "We're making a real effort in terms of balancing the paper. The paper is not being written with the legislators in mind. Our audience is the University community."

Legislative Bill 1271 has for now been referred to the Education Committee. The Bill in part reads "A university or college in this state which is currently receiving state appropriations shall not require students at the university or college to pay any form of mapdatory student activities fee or charge. If the university or college collects or requests the collection of an optional student activities fee, to be paid at the discretion of the student, the proposed uses shall be put forth in detail in any literature by the university or college.

The Director of Administrative Services, upon establishing to his satisfaction that any university or college has neglected or failed to comply with the provisions of this act, shall immediately suspend the payment of the state appropriations to the universitv and college."

PEDITORIAL

Involverp.ent, what does it mean to you? Is it a word that has too much meaning or none at all?

If the president of the United States doesn't become involved in rising manners, the United States would fall apart. Involvement has its place at Peril State College also. P.S:C. has many opportunities to get involved if only people would open up their eyes and look around. That doesn't mean sit back and let the other person do all the work, and you profit from the reward of success. Everyone must work together, whether the outcome is good or bad.

So whenever you think something needs improvement at Peru, start by getting involved, P.S.C. has a lot to offer.

P.S.C. Students Get Four Day Weekend

Most students when asked what they planned to do next Thursday and Friday when school is out for teachers convention indicated that they would just go home and make it ·a "four day weekend."

The first vacation of the second semester, although only two days long, will come during the loth week -of the second semester, and only two weeks before the Easter break.

Many students feel that a vacation should have come sooner, while a couple would rather have it come just before the Easter break to make the spring recess a little longer.

"You can't really do much , with just an extra two days," said one student who wished to remain anonymous. "I would much rather have it go along with the Easter vacation that is coming up so that I could really do something with· it," he concluded.

Co liege Choir Plans concert

The Peru State College Con· cert Choir is presenting a concert under the direction of Mr Ed Camealy, Monday March 20, at 8:00 p.m. in the PSC auditorium.

The tour choir, Madrigal group, and the swing group will present their respective programs.

For the first time in ten years the choir will look a like with uniform dress. At their own expense the students are either buying or making their attire for the event.

A little brick church was erected in 1869, on the first hill that skirts the road, as one enters old Peru from the north.

Secretary Association serves community

Peru State students and faculty and the people in the Peru community benefit from the work of the Peru State Seeretary Association. The organization is a branch of the National Association of Educational Secretaries which has its headquarters in Washington, D.C.

The members of the club took an active interest in the Peru State Homecoming festivites by constructing a float which won third place in the parade. 1 Faculty and students enjoyed a special treat atChristmas time when they were served tea, coffee, and cookies by members of the club.

Patients at the Nemaha County Hospital and the Good Samaritan Home received Valentine favors made by the secretaries.

The organization meets every third Tuesday each month. Members plan the special programs for the meetings.

''The American Dame'' Reviewed

"The American Drune" by Phillip C. Lewis was an excellent production. Many qualities of umor and drama were used in picting the history of the American women.

As I sat and watched the play I became overwhelmed by things that woman had to go through to get their rights. She was pushed to the side for many years. She was punished for something she had not done, laughed at when >fighting for something she believed in, and worst of all looked on as inferior to man. I believe many people in the audience became involved in the play. They wanted to find out .more about women's rights. The limited scenery did not detract from the play. I felt it added to it. The slides helped visualize women and events that make up the history of the American woman.

The play as a whole was very good. All the weeks of hard work show up in the production play. Everyone did an excellent job.

By Bob Wernsman

After being associated -with various college performances during .the past two years, and now with "The American Dame", there is one thing that sticks in my mind,

"The American Dame" was one of the finest productions I have had the opportunity to work with and observe.

Everything included in it, from the quick-change of sets, to the wide variety of characters which the cast assumed was executed to a heigh t seldom attained. ·

It was obvious that everyone in the cast, along with Miss Manley had worked long and hard, and they deserve the compliments sure to come their way.

However, · besides being an enjoyable evening away from studying, it also provided many in the audience with an eye opener. Had the people in attendance ever realized just what had been done to hold back and suppress the American female?

By Mrs Wilson

"The American Dame," as presented by the Peru Players, Wednesday and Thursday, March 8 and 9, promises a fastmoving · evening of entertainment, based upon a timely theme which is increasingly forcing itself upon the American consciousness - the rights of women.

The form of the play itself is an interesting one, known as a PLAY-OUT in which actors announce a theme and then play it out. Simple props and symbolic bits of costumes serve to identify the time and place, as the characters move backward through history to highlight those moments that stimulated the progress of women in their quest for equality.

O'Connor and Bob Olson round out the cast, lending strong support to the scenes in which 'they appear.

Director Patricia Manley, Instructor in Speech, moves the play at a rapid pace, unifying the scenes with effective musical background, lighting, and appropriate slide projection. The technical work under the direction pf Stage Manager DeVoe Manning is smoothly executed.

It all adds up to an evening of good entertainment, leaving the audience in a pleasant frame of mind, but with a better understanding of the evolution of "The American Dame."

Prior to the meetings the president of the club gives brief lessons which provide information to clerical workers in the field of education and service in the school and the community.

The members of the club visited the Nuclear ·Plant at Brownville and plan to attend the State Secretary Association Convention at Lincoln and the National Convention in Wichita, Kansas, in the spring.

The 1971-72officers of the Peru State Secretary Association are: Gerry Brady, Thelma GraftOn, vice-president, and Mildred Groff, secretary-Treasurer.

"Crackin" Correction

In last weeks issue of the Ped, it was stated in a story about "Crackin" that, had the nightwatchman been able to remove the gun from his holster, he would have shot the tires of the "Crackin" truck.

The nightwatchman has not carried a gun for three years.

The staff of the Ped hopes that those involved in the story will understand that rumor sometimes gets mixed in with lhe truth.

A PERSON who talks about his inferiors hasn't any. -Hawaiian Proverb

It is no wonder we are now facing the movement to liberate the women and put her on an equal plane as the man.

One aspect of the play which made it every more enjoyable was the realization that everything which appeared and was stated, was true and did happen.

It is my wish that Miss Manley and her crew may be able to equal in the future, the performances presented last Wednesday and Thursday evenings.

Truly a dramatization no orie should have missed.

The variety of the scenes, ranging from rollicking, good humor to high seriousness, demands great versatility from the cast. John Thomas is equally adept as the villain in the "mellerdrammer" scenes, and as. the thundering, denunciator of sinful womanhood, Cotton Mather, in the Puritan church scene. Mark Hahn makes excellent use of a flexible voice in gliding smoothly through scenes varying from the characterization of a snake to that of a western pioneer taking his bride, Julee Tillman, to California.

Joevette Farber's Mrs Blatzberg is a well-done, humorous representation of a very familiary characteristic of the American dame, while Rhonda Preston gives an amusing portrayal of yesterday's working woman. Poignant moments from the life of Abigail Adams are enacted by LinDee Raymond, and Barb Wilkinson effectively portrays the Woman's Rights speaker. We are allowed to ex;ierience a tense scene from Ibsen's Doll House through the acting of Carol Muse and Mike Kelly, and Bart Neri makes many scenes sparkle with his ability to eapitalize on significant aspects of his characterizations.

Interns will be paid $1500 to $2000 depending upon the particular school assigned to. Aspiring interns will take part in a summer training program before beginning internship in lhe fall.

An IBM computer for use in classroom study is scheduled for arrival sometime in March, according to Mr Stan J. Mccaslin, director of data processing at Peru State College. The computer is an IBM li30, a medium ·sized multipurpose model, which is to be leased from IBM. It i!I now being used at Kearney State and is being replaced there by a larger one. The State Colleges at Wayne and Chadron also have plans for installing one similar to the one soon to arrive at PSC.

The computer will be installed in · room 102 of the Administration Building where Introduction to Data Processing class is being held. The same course is being offered this summer and first semester next year. The second semester of the 1972-73 school year a computer programming course will be offered.

There will soon be green grass springing up all over the PSC lawn. It is hoped by the maintenance department that the students will cooperate by staying off the campus lawn and using the sidewalks.

Part of the cast 0 are: Rhonda Preston, Bob Olson, Barb Wilkinson, Joevette Farber, Lin Dee Raymond, Mike Kelley, and Mark Hahn.

.Seems as if Mr Reesman a member of the Board of Trustees in his visit here enjoyed the students. He thought it was a very worthwhile trip and he learned a lot about Peru's needs. He wants to come back in six weeks. Tip 'o the Tam to the SGA and P .S.S.S.S. for bringing him here Well the bulletin board outside the administration building is finished, sure is a good sight. .For all of you music lovers, senior recitals will be going on for the rest of the year.

According to Earl Applegate, the owner, things are going good for Peru's latest new business. The only thing he says he needs is a good card game Amos Pump was recently checking on some facts with the National Bureau of Standards, and he came up with this interesting tidbit. One of the reports showed that women's body measurements have grown an inch in all directions in the past 30 years. The average used to be 34-25-36, and now the average is 35-26-37. It's good to know the government is keeping an eye on things For all of you poets, the National Poetry Press is conducting a contest to judge your poetry. Entries should be sent to: Office of the Press, National POETRY Press, 3210 Selby Ave., Los Angeles, Calif., no later than April 10th. The word is that they prefer poems less than one page Sure was glad to hear about Peru winning that award for our education dept. I hope the legislature keeps that in mind when making up the budget. .Speaking of the legislature, Peru hosted four Senators Monqay night, Senators Ziebarth, Carsten, Wiltse, and Burbach for a discussion. For those who didn't make it, you missed a good show by the Senators. There were some pretty good questions asked and the Senators had a pretty hard time trying to field them. There'll be coming back probably before the end of the year, look for posters and get in on the action Titus Pump was tellin about how the other day in the library he found a book, Social Justice by Willoughby (330.l W68) that had been used between 1924 tO' 1928 by three people and hasn't been since then. If you'd like to see how they used to write back then, get yourself a look. If any of you have found any earlier ones then that, Titus says he'd like to know, write Uncle Lune co Ped Campus Mail and he'll tell Titus about it. .The play American Dame was a great play as everyone who saw can tell you. If you didn't see 1t. Ya really missed somethin good .Amos Pump relates that women are supposed to be smarter than men, but did you ever see a man wearing a Shirt that buttoned up the back? Y'all have a pleasant weekend, hear!

Reesman Raps With Studen

lly KEN lllTE

The students of Peru State College had a chance to visit with a State College Board of Trustees member Ward ·Reesman Thursday.

Mr Reesman stressed that he has no background in education, but that he really wanted to see student ideas leak through the train of command and reach the top. A,ny student, he said, who is going through the proper channels and not being heard may call him.

When questioned on Peru's lack of funds Mr Reesman gave several reasons. First of all, the taxpayer wants more accountability for his funds. One of the prerequisites for more money, then would be better accountability.

GA·RY HOEMANN RECRUITS FOR PSC

Mr Gary Hoemann, Peru State College's representative for high school and college students, takes an avid interest in his job and states that he really enjoys his work.

Mr Hoemann received his degree in business administration from Peru State in May, 1971. He is employed by the Peru Achievement Found,ation. He advises visiting students, contacts interested students in high schools and junior colleges, and helps students attending Peru State. He also answers letters of. inquiry concerning Peru State.

Approximately one-hundred and fifty schools are contacted by Mr Hoemann. He travels. extensively and has completed a trip to Grand Island to inform interested students about Peru State. He expressed his appreciation for the

cooperation of Peru State· students, the Student Governing Association and the Student Center Board.

Mr Hoemann said that high school students are becoming more and more interested in attending small colleges. He finds that the trend seems to be shifting from the emphasis of belongint to sororities and fraternities at large colleges.

He also stated that many high •. school students are already familiar with Peru State through high school invitational sports activities. Mr Hoemann has. found that in almost every high school he has visited at least one of the faculty members is a graduate of Peru State.

Mr Hoemann emphasized the imPortance of a good recommendation by a Peru State student to someone considering Peru

Fire Prevention Rules

About a month ago a fire broke out at Morgan Hall which, as all fires, could have been prevented.

The two girls in the room where the fire occured lost about 70 dollars worth of books and personal items while about 450 dollars in damage was done to the room.

In an attempt to prevent future fires in the dorms on the Peru State Cam pus the following fire prevention rules were issued by the Peru Fire Commissioner Howard Allgood. It is suggested that this list be hung on your bulletin board or wall as a safety reminder.

7. Don't overheat stereos or television sets.

It was mentioned by students that at Peru, teachers in growing areas, such as art and sociology are dismissed, while personnel in overstaffed departments such as administration and teacher education are retained. Mr Reesman agreed that perhaps this is not the best application of the tax dollar. He said he felt

With Students

Four Senators from the Nebraska Legislature were on the Peru State Campus Monday Night for an informal "rap session", which was sponsered jointly by the Peru State Social Science Society and the Student Goverl;lment Association. Mr Steve Long a member of PSSS and the S.G.A. President acted as moderator for the event.

The four Senators were, Irvin F. Wiltse of Falls City, who is the representative from the Peru district, Calvin F Carsten, Avoca; Julias Burbach, Crofton; and Wayne W. Ziebarth, of Wilcox.

About eighty members of the student body, facluty, and members of the community attended the discussion. Most of the evening was spent discussing issues concrrning PSC.

Mr Ziebarth voted for LB 1092, which would allow for the sale of alcoholic beverages on Nebraska College and University campuses. He supported the bill by saying if the 18 year old is responsible enough to vote, he should be allowed to drink on campus. However, he added that if the privilages were abused by excessive permiscuity, they could be revoked. The bill was defeated· by the Legislature last week by a 30-12 margin.

Several questions were asked by students concerning the future of PSC. Mr Ziebarth remarked that the Board of Trustees asked for $25,000 for a study to decide what to do with PSC.

The Senator made it quite clear that he voted against the · bill in the budget committee, of which he is a member. Mr Ziebarth, who sponsored LB 759, which states a four year college cannot have a Vo-Tee school on campus, said he supported the idea of having a VocationalTechnical Institute at Peru State College.

Mr Floyd Pohlman, a former mayor of Auburn, asked why the

legislature ignored the h element in making policies Peru State College. Sen Ziebarth replied by saying whatever the Governors bu committee recomends t usually go along with.

Senator Burbach said it w take community involvemen improve the current deterio condition at PSC. He stated groups of citizens of the area, well as PSC students should go the budget committee and rna their feelings known.

Mr Wiltse said he is in favor building a Vo-Tee school Peru. Peru has been known a teachers college in the p however according to senator, since there are a s plus of teachers in the econo maybe Peru should expand i other fields such as the Voprogram. Mr Wiltse said P had most of the facilities ne to expand into Vo-Tee. construction of one additio building on campus, at a cost approximatly $100,000, would all that is needed to develop program. Mr Carsten stated has been working with.Wiltse getting the Vo-Tee progra developed at PSC.

The Senator then spoke of "Buffalo Path" which links Pe with Highway 73-75. He said highway was a high prio · during the last administrati but a change in .the governo office lowered it on ·the list Nothing is currently planne during the next year.

As far as the current list o priorities go, new equipment in the Science building was number 2 on the list.

Mr Carsten added that a "rap session" similar to the on presented Monday night, should be held when the budget committee makes its annual trip to Peru.

After the session the Senators mingled with the crowd, answering any further questions the students or faculty members had.

Mrs Gnade ·Woman with the needle and thread

The secretary to President Gomon is Mrs Mary Anna Gnade. Besides keeping all of the facts, figures and papers of the President in order, Mrs Gnade also finds time to aid the drama department in keeping costumes in order.

It all began in the summer of 1962, when Mr Robert Moore tried to get a group to present "mellerdrammers" at the old Opera House in Brownville. Mrs Gnade volunteered for anything but acting and wound up as assistant director of nearly everything.

Moore, who was then Head of the Division of Language Arts and director of the theatre, had always had his wife put make-up on the actors and actresses.

But, in the fall of 1962 when she couldn't perform this task it fell to Mrs Gnade who was also asked to "scrounge" props and parts of costumes.

After this, just being available expanded the scrounging to include designing costumes, programs and helping in any capacity when needed backstage.

The making of costumes began when rentals were found unsatisfactory and it was discovered that it was much less expensive to buy material or remake old costumes.

When asked about her background for this type of work, Mrs Gnade commented that it started back in childhood skits and plays. If you mix in a high school course in speech and a little theatre experience, what you come up with is the manager of costumes.

About the compensation for all the time and effort spent, Mrs

Gnade said, "The friendships which developt'CI in the easy camaraderie backstage have been the greatest reward. I learned much about technique, good and bad plays, and performances. Acceptance into the Drama Club exposed me to more theatre going, both amateur and professional."

When the Auditorium was dismantled for rehabilitation, there was no easy, accessible storage place for the "junk" which had been accumulated for possible use as props and costumes.

Since Mrs Gnade. had been carrying items between college and home for refurbishing each production, she was again turned to. Yes, all materials and props were delivered to her house and stored in the attic.

After last semester, boxes and bags were slowly returned to the auditorium, which Miss Manley the new Drama instructor is now sorting.

Mrs Gnade added that it usually has not been too difficult - locating possible costumes.

"Over the years, any number of people at the college and in the community have cooperated wonderfully when I mentioned a need and "could we borrow?"

There have been occasions when an actor went "on stage" literally pinned together. "In instances like this, I have spent entire performances in the wings with needle and thread for quick repairs betweeit' scenes. But while it may be true that 'clothes make the man', I have seen brilliant performances that made my scrappy, common costumes look like beautifullyconstructed threads of gold."

Past Track Records

Jim Mather of Arapahoe ran a sensational 9. 7in the year 1940 to become the first Peruvian to dip below the 10-Second mark in the 100-yard dash. It wasn't until 'll years later in 1967 that Richard Reck of Grand Island was able to tie it. Elmer Reeves and Naomis Ward followed suit in 1970 with identical times.

The oldest mark of them all, however, is held by Wayne Riggs of Shubert, Nebraska. Riggs sped to a sizzling 21.5 in the 220-

yard dash in 1934. That record has remained unbroken for 38 years.

Calvin Smith recorded a 49.1 in the 440and1:53.7 in the half-mile in 1970 for the best time in those brackets. Then comes Jack Weyers, owning a 4:08.1 in the mile, 9:11.9 in the two-mile, 13:52 in the three-mile and 30:03.5 in the six-mile e.vent.

Smith finished the 800-meter run in a blistering 1:53.9 in 1968 while Van Allen of Nemaha and

Dave Harris of Auburn share the best time in theSteeplechase in the same year with 4:56.9. The other 48-year old record is held by B. Cowell of Auburn, running the 120-yard high hurdles in 14.&.

Falls City's contribution to the record book was made by Doug Gibson, who in 1957, recorded 24.96. in the 120-lows. Seven years later in 1964, Roger Crook recorded a 40.0 in the 330-yard hurdles. In 1968 Smith crossed the finish line in 56.7 while competing in the 440-yard hurcles.

Leon Golden, Bruce Brummer, Jim Patera and Bob Bowen in 1971 finished the 480-yard shuttle hurdles event in 1:06.9. 1964 was the year for the 440yard relay when Curt Holliman, B Giovanello, Roger Cook and David Seward bombined for a 42.6 clocking. In the 880-yard relay, Crook, Seward, Narva -Brye and Jim Hagemeier the following year ran a 1:27.6.

In the Mile relay: Smith, Nate Parks, Dave Bierbaum and John Winkel ran a 3:18.4 in 1970. The two-mile relay team consisting of Smith, Tim Hendricks, Roger Neumahr and Jim Watson teamed up for a 7:50.4 in 1968. The Spring Medley squad of Bierbaum, Jim Hinton, Winkel and Smith ran their fastest race in 3:29.2 in 1970.

Parks leaped 6'-3" in 1971 against North West Missouri State while our old friend Jim Mather went 24;-71" in the broad jump, again in 1940. Buddy McCrea of Omaha triple-jumped 45'-91/z" in 1965.

The pole vault'mark belongs to A. Johnson, going 14'0" in 1968. Bruce Vickery heaved the shot 51'4lh" the same year along with Mike Mulvaney who threw the discus 169'8". Jim Hinton in 1970 tossed the javelin 215'3".

Clayburn - Mathews dues

Through. the use of $4.00 dorm dues the residents of ClayburnMathews are able to attend current movies shown at Nebraska City, and enjoy weight lifting equipment, ping pong equipment and two pool tables.

Within the past week, a survey was conducted by the dormitory council to find what was being used and what additional articles were thought to be needed. It was a near unanimous feeling that a stove be purcllased for the use of the students living in the dormitory.

FINAL CAGE STATISTICS

The final cage statistics in District 11 have been compiled. With the exception of the free throw department, leaders throughout the season maintained their first place standings in the final report.

Dennis Siefkes of Wayne led in scoring with a 26.0 average, and field goal shooting, .553; Peru's Ananias Montague finished in the runner-up slot, not bad for half a season's work. Bernard Brown of Doane led in rebounding, Montague finished third here with a 12.3 average.

Jim White of Hastings emerged as the free throw champ. Of all the departments, this one was the most hotly

Bill Snyder Area Boy,

A real southeast Nebraska boy, that's Mr Bill Snyder. A graduate of Pawnee City, he began his teaching career in Johnson in 1965. He acquired both his B.S. and M.E.D. degrees at the University of Nebraska at Lincoln. He married his high school sweetheart, and now he is the youngest male instructor at Peru.

Snyder is essentially the same as most PSC students. He considers them the example of basically conservative, rural America. He had to work his way thru college as many PSC students do. Mr Snyder worked as a carpenter, fiber glass worker, ran a swimming pool, and even bused tables in a sorority house.

Being conservative, Mr Snyder feels that working within the system is the only way to achieve significant change. Yet, his goals are the same as most people who see the need for and demand change. He wonders if Peru State has been a teachers' college for too long. He would like to see expansion into areas of public administration, and

"Students a!ld faculty members must assume a greater responsibility for the direction of the school." Mr Snyder went on to say, "When something happens that you don't feel is in the best interest of the school, you have an obligation to express yourself." B\lt, "Express it to the right places." This may best express Mr Snyders' opinion on dissent.

When asked about tenure, Mr · Snyder said that he had a fifteen minute sermon on tenure, but instead he summed up his views on tenure this way, "Tenure protects those who don't deserve protection." But he added that Peru probably has fewer abuses thru tenure than most other schools, in proportion.

Mr Snyders' dissatisfaction with student evaluation of faculty is tandamount to his opinion of grades. The principle is good, but it "boils down to a value judgement."

Ken Boettcher · Story of a Winner

The leader this past season for the Bobcat wrestling team was Ken Boettcher at 142 lbs. from Omaha.

Ken finished the season with a 15-1 record with his only loss coming to Loren Hansen' of Wayne State in the conference meet in the first round, 5-2. Ken avenged this loss in the district meet though when he faced Hansen in the semi-finals and defeated him 4-1.

After defeating Hansen, Ken faced Bruce Brooks of U.N.O., a former Illinois state champion, in the finals, and won the district title with a 5-1 victory.

Ken is a freshman who graduated from Omaha South. He started wrestling in the eighth grade at Bancroft Jr. High. At South in his senior year, Ken compiled a record of 25-7 and finished fourth in the state meet. When asked what he enjoyed

most about wrestling, Ken said, "It is an individual sport, and I don't have to depend on someone else to win. You get to express yourself because everyone has their own style of wrestling."

Ken would like to move up to the 150 lb weight class next year, ,but said it will depend upon how strong he is, and this will depend on how his weight lifting program goes this summer.

He woul-d also like to go on to the NAIA Finals in Klamath Falls, Oregon. He definitely has the potential to do real well in the finals, but he would have to miss about a week and a half of school, and feels that school is more important at this point since this is only his freshman year. He believes that the finals next year will be held somewhere in the mid-west, thus giving him a better opportunity to go and not miss so much school.

He spends an average of two hours preparing each hour of lecture material. That's not counting Sunday afternoons. "Teaching is what you make of it. demanding or easy."

When asked for a personal opinion of himself as a teacher, he paused. "When things go right, I feel like it's all worth it,'' with a smile he mused "other times I feel like God couldn't ·have created worse."

In action, Boettcher ties up Bruce Brooks UN-Omaha, en route to a 5-1 decision for the 142 title in the NAIA District II wrestling tournament at Wayne March 4.

The Navy's Officer Information Team will be visiting the Peru State College campus on March 15 td talk with prospective graduates about the job opportunities available to them in the Navy. ·

Albie Pearson speaks at PSC

Albie Pearson didn't speak on baseball even though it has played a major roll in his life. Instead he spoke of something that has played an even bigger roll in his life, and that is his being a Christian.

Pearson told of his Youth foundation, a foundation set-up to aid the young drug users, the teenage alcoholics, and homeless unwed mothers. His centers have helped around 10,000 drug users, and countless alcololics and unwed Mothers.

-Peter Zenger Helps Ped

The writers of the Pedagogian have a lot to owe to one man. He is Peter Zenger, who is usually not written about in today's world. The precedent he set in 1734 reflects the type of writing everyone reads today in their newspaper including the Ped.

Peter established, through defying the British government when America was still a colony, that, truth is not libel. Arrested in 1734 because of the criticism he undertook of the British government for their censurship, Andrew Hamilton became his lawyer.

Even at that time Hamilton had a reputation of being a fine lawyer, and with his arguments Peter Zenger was acquitted. This was a major victory at the time and still the writers of today live by that decision.

HOLDING THE LINE

GOVERNOR Edgar D. Whitcomb of Indiana declares that unless "indiscriminate spending" by government is halted at all levels the system of government as we know it today will be destroyed. What is the "secret" of halting this "indiscriminate spending" as it' is practiced in Indiana?

The only way to get relief for property taxpayers - a topic that is as hot in Nebraska as it is in every other state - is to hold the line or government spending. Holding the line, in case the government boys and girls don't know what it is, means exactly what it says.

Governor Whitcomb tells something we have learned i™Nebraska: gover.nment can't give relief to property taxpayers by increasing other forms of taxation, like sales and income taxes. Relief has not been achieved in the past and it won't be achieved in the future.

Who is demanding this fake "relief" for property taxpayers?

In Indiana, at the insistence of this conservative governor, all governmental agencies have cut public payrolls and increased production. (Have any Nebraska bureaucrats thought of cutting payrolls and increasing production - meaning getting more work out of public employes!)

Says Governor Whitcomb:

"Every subdivision of government from the federal government on down is short of money because they are unwilling to establish limits beyond which they will not go for spending."

Indiana, by tr"' way, is the only state that hasn't raised taxes since 1963. Before that all pressure groups banded together to raise income and sales taxes. That sort of "tax relief" has been halted at least for now.

Height is a help in politics, too. The average American male is 5 feet 8--but no U.S. President that short has been elected in the 2oth century.

In dairy-rich Wisconsin butter comes in as many as seven flavors. It can taste like chocolate, garlic an_d chives, sour cream_, synthetic cheese-like almost anything but margarine. Probably four out of five people can't tell you why grapefruit are so named. It is because the fruit grows in grapelike clusters of from 3 to 18.

One of the reasons diamonds are so hard to find is that the pufe carbon from which they are made turns into a gem only ·under a pressure of a million pounds a square inch and temperatures at or above, 2,500 degrees. Such condi_tions are found in nature only at an earth depth of 150 or more miles.

Reporter's notebook

I asked a man at Pio.neer bridge club the other evening if he attended the baseball games played iit the new Sun City ball park.

"All of them," he replied.

I wondered if it wasn't pretty hot to sit out in that 95-degree sun when the Giants lost to Tokyo 2 to 3 yesterday afternoon. I had turned down a ticket to the game because of the burning sunshine.

This fellow explained he sits in the back row and hoists his umbrella. That's an idea. Other fans, I note, take their golf carts into the stadium, park 'em behind the last row of seats, and enjoy things sitting there on the .Cushman cushi.on and under the' canopy. Nice, but there never is room.for any more cars; those people must go over there at noon.

DEL Webb, ·who built the ball park for the gal softball players and as an added feature the members of the Cactus spring training circuit, thought of the comfqrtof the Sun City fans. The seats are aluminum, the base contoured in a more comfortable shape than any church 'pew you have ever sat on, and the back sloped just right. (Why the builders of ·church furniture don't seem to worry about the comfort of the contributors is something I have never understood.)

YOU may not have read that Bobby Winkles, formerly Arizona State University baseball coach, now coaches for the California Angels, the Big League ball team.

The other evening more than 6,000 fans turned out to watch the ASU Sun Devils take a 6 to 5 decision from the Angela, cUsguised as Salt Lake City for some reason I do not understand. · Features of the game included not only the kids the team of their former coach, but a triple play center fielder to second to first, catching a couple of the Angels before they could tag up. The Angels, by the way, didn't use too m?ny regulars in the game. +++++

THE other day we had something in this place about cable television, the information given by Bruce Merrill, the speaker at the Rotary club.

We have the annual report of the Lincoln Tel and Tel Co. on our desk which says LT&T as of January 21 this year, was serving 15,000 subscribers and 4,000 additional connections for a total of 19,000.

The company's CATV operation, although a reduction in J;i;icpenses, lost $695,910 last year, mcluding depreciation accruals of $521,382. The report pointed out, however, that there were $353,252 in income tax derived from filing consolidated income tax returns.

THE report said that new federal CATV rules will permit the system to carry signals from two independent stations, in addition to the three networks. "There are several good independent stations that originate popular programs such as the ones located in Denver, Minneapolis and Kansas City," said the report. "Whether it is economically feasible to provide one or more of the independent stations on our Lincoln system or any_ other system will have to be studied closely."

BETTY CANARY

Mother {-Escapes'

By BETTY CANARY

You can always tell when a young mother has escaped. You may not know why she's been "inside" for so long. It may be because she's had three children taking turns with the mumps. Or because she doesn't trust anybody giving the baby a bath until she's two months old. It could be she has had to choose between repairing the refrigerator and hiring a sitter. The point is, you can spot her driving down the street, in a department store and, espe.cially, when she's having lunch out for the first time in months.

She is the woman smoothing bedspreads in the furniture department, The who rearranges two shelves in giftware while muttering, know how these kids reach this stuff!"

She's the one who whips out a tissue and wipes your child's nose. The one who doesn't watch the man giving the sewing machine demonstration-because she's too busy picking

M. B. of Springfield, Ill., wr i t e s: Child labor laws seem to limit job openings for teen-agers. Why are they so stiff?

Dear M. B.: Child labor laws prohibit employment of minors under 16 during school hours and those under 18 in certain dangerous jobs to protect their educational opportunity and physical well being. D e s p it e these protective standards, about 95 per cent of all jobs remain open to teen-agers b et ween 16 and 18, and there are no restrictions for tho.se over 18.

A master plotter within the religious community of Judea and its Jerusalem, was the high priest, Annas. Living under the shadow of Rome, and under· the civil authority of the governor, the high priest nevertheless had enormous power and control. He headed the Sadducees, a conservative group of elders and priests who directed the affairs of the Temple and represented the wealth and vested interests of the Jews.

Annas held the office of high priest for nine years, being deposed in favor of Caiaphas, bis son-in-law. Yet he was never out of touch or in fear of losing power His five sons became high priests and during the trial of Jesus he w-as the senior dignitary before whom the Prophet w-.as brought for questioning. He also threatened the apostles and their followers w-hen they testified to the Resurrection. Annas represented corrupt religion and his contest with Jesus was vicious and inevitable.

"A career in the service is very lucrative, especially now because of pay raises," is an idea expressed by Major Webb. He feels that the time for military victory in Vietnam is long past and he believes that President Nixon's withdrawal plan is an effective means of resolving the situation.

Spring Week is sponsored jointly by the Student Center Board and Student Programs Comiuittce, paid for by Student Programs fees.

Russ was appointed by the '72'73 District Board of governor, secretary, treasurer, and other lieutenant governors. He will serve a term. His basic duty will be to serve the chapters in his district which include chapters at Peru, Fairbury Junior College, Nebraska Wesleyan, University of Nebraska at Omaha, and the University of Nebraska at Lincoln. It will be his duty to instill initiative in the clubs, to act as the go-between between the chapters and the board, to help weak clubs and start new clubs. In addition to this, he will attend board meetings and report to the governor on clubs in the district. When asked how he hoped to accomplish these duties, Russ said that along with regular correspondence he hoped to visit each chapter at least once a year. He also said that a new chapter was likely to originate in the vocational-technical school in Council Bluffs, Looking forward Russ stated

that he would be attending the National Circle K convention in Denver, Colorado, from August '.27th to fall.'.

Russ started his Circle K career as vice-president of the local chapter a year ago. During the currept year he has served as president.

Carrying out the objective of being a service unit for the college and community, the local organization has been instrumental in securing the current events sign, benches for the lawn, and a scoreboard for the baseball field which is soon to be built. The organization has sponsored the local Cub Scouts, made a sizeable donation to the Humanities Department toward the radio station, and last Spring sponsored· hikers in the Crop Walk.

Circle K is a service 9rganization through which college men and women can find a means of responsible student action in their communities and a more active involvement in the life of their campus. The con· cerns of tl!e organization result in a very direct personal service. Members are involved in activities that help people and serve the campus and community as clubs perceive needs they can effectively meet.

Rabbi Barry L. Weinstein will address !I student convocation in the Fine Arts auditorium of Peru State College at 9:00 a.m.,· Wed., April 1!1. His topic is "Judaism and Its Contemporary Literature." Rabbi Weinstein is from Temple Israel, Omaha; and his appearance is a part of the enrichment program conducted by the Language Arts Department.

On April 18 at 7:30, Dr. James Todd, Mr Henry I. Freed, Mr Ward Reesman, and Senators Irving Wils.te and Cal Carsten will be on our campus for a rap session on the subject of "The Future of Peru". The last tWo rap sessions held on this campus had good discussions with interested students and many things were brought into the open.

This session should be even more profitable, since Dr. Todd, coordinator of the· four state colleges, and Mr Freed, president of the Board of Trustees will be in attendance. This is the chance for PSC students to air their opinions and possibly get some action. ·

Any student who really cares about the future of PSC,should attend this session. Many.people say that they don't care what happens to PSC, and to these people I would like to ask "Why then do you go to school here?"

There are many things at PSC which should be looked into, and the only way to get this done is for the students to quit complaining to their fellow students and talk to someone who can do something. Go to the Fine Arts Auditorium Tuesday, April 18 at.7:30 and talk to the men with the real power. These men are sincere, or some of them wouldn't be coming back for a third session. They must have realized that PSC does need help.

So, go Tuesday and actively participate in the discussion. It is your job as students to give your governing board some constructive ideas for improvement of your school.

Religious Film Offered April 1.7

The United Ministries in High .<::ducation is bringing Pier Pasolinis ', "The Gospel According to St. Mathew" to Peru Monday, April 17. Admission is free and it will be shown in the ' Fine Arts Auditorium at 7:30 p.m.

"The Gospel according to St. Mathew" is an internationally acclaimed award-winning portrayal of the life of Christ. Pasolini makes almost total use non-professional actors and only uses a type of actor when he feels it is necessary.

The action was filmed directly on location with natural lighting

and a hand held camera. This gives the audience chance to become a participant in the action rather than a spectator. The film creates an overwhelming emotional, if not religious effect on it's audiences. It is intensely Christian- and totally without any commerical _concessions.

DISCussions

·by Frank D'Addesa·

Leon Russell and Marc &nno get it all together on Aylum Choir 11 (Shelter SW-8910). The album, however, belongs more to Russell than to Benno as the latter only co-authors a few numbers and supplies backing vocals

Asylum Choir 11 begins with "Sweet Home Chicago", which tells of the presidential convention four years.back and then into a sarcastic anti-Vietnam song called "Down On The Base". "Tryin To Stay Live" and "Ballad For A Soldier" (a song which resembles the Calley incident) are a couple of other anti-war songs. -

In "When You Wish Upon A Fag", (''Save the coupons, walk a mile, your lungs are getting tanned"), Leon shows he is also anti-cigarettes.

Though most of the album was produced by the two musicians back in 1969, the lyrics and rriusic are still very contemporary. Asylum Choir 11 is

one of the better albums of the

year and shows Leon Russell is finally living up to his potential.

Bread's latest album Baby I'm A Want You (Elektra EKS75015) gets off to a fast start with hits; "Mother Freedom'', "Baby I Want You" and "Everything I Own" dn the beginning of the first side. But after these three the 'album slows down quite a bit and in fact drags on to the end.

"Games of Magic" and ''This Isn't What The Governmeant", a song about taxes and war, are a couple of the better cuts on the second side, if there are any better ones.

The best cut on the album "Everything I Own", combines music with some good lyrics ("The finest years I ever knew, were all the years I had with you"). This hit record is writerguitarist David Gates' second biggie, the first one of course is "Make It With You".

"Baby I'm A Want You" is, to put it mildly, one of those albums that one might just play a few cuts off of.

Twenty--0ne hot hits are put together on the Rolling Stones' "Hof Rocks 1964-1971" (Londor. -2PS 606-7).

The two album set combines ··such oldies as "Satisfaction", · "GetOffOfMyCloud", and "As Tears Go By" with fairly new releases such as "Brown Sugar" and "Wild Horses". The longawaited album also includes hits; "Ruby Tuesday", "19th Nervous Breakdown", and "Jumping Jack Flash" to name only a few more big ones.

This collectors item condenses the brilliant career of the Rolling Stones. What more can one say, the album speaks for itself. "Hot Rocks" is suggested to anyone who wants to get stoned.

Teaching Career To Endln May

By: BOB WEINSMAN

An era is soon to end at Peru 3tate College. The end of the 1971-72 school year will see the close of the teaching career of Mr Silas Summers, Associate Professor of English

Mr Summers has taught· at Peru since 1960. Before that, he taught at such varied places as Montrose, Colo.; Udell, Iowa; Nissa, Oregon; Jamestown College and Tarkio. In all, Mr Summers has taught for 36 years. In the 12 years Mr Summers has taught at Peru, approximately 3000 students have been under his direction.

When asked about his remaining in teaching all these years, Mr Summers said thathe enjoyed classroom work with the students, rather than the ad· ministrative work that many teachers eventually go into.

The main satisfaction Mr Summers has received from teaching has been seeing many of his students continue in their education and receive their doctorate, along with enjoying success in their particular field.

The aspect of teaching he has. enjoyed at Peru has been the freedom to conduct his classes as he sees fit, not being dictated by anyone in an administrative position.

Mr Summers plans to remain in Peru, except, for some

possible traveling through Florida, and some northern states.

In ending, Mr Summers said that although there is talk of conflicts, he notes that there are a minimum of inner-faculty clashes, with the groups working together harmoniously on the ;peru State Campus.

Science Society Holds Conventjon

Lambda Delta Lambda, an honorary Physical Science Society, held their national convention at Kearney State College April 7, and 8

The meeting reconvened Saturday morning with discussion of proposals beneficial to the organization.

The convention -also accepted Peru State's offer to host the convention next fall.

As the plot developes Tony <Dennis Winninger), the handsome son of the Kirby's, falls in Jove with Alice Sycamore <Gloria Obermeyer), and brings his parents to dine at the Sycamore home on the wrong evening.

shows Alice that marriage with· Tony is out of the question. The Sycamores, however, though sympathetic to Alice, find it hard to realize her point of view. Meantime Tony, who kriows .the Sycamores are right and his own people Wrong, will not give her up, and in the end Mr Kirby is. converted to the happy madness of the Sycamores, particularly since he happens in during a visit by an ex-Grand Dutchess <Janet Wilson), earning her living as a waitress.

No mention has yet been made of the strange activities of certain members of the household engaged in the manufacture of fireworks; nor of the printing press set up in the parlor; nor of Rheba the maid <Anita Shires) and her friend Donald (Rob McKercher>; nor of Grandpa's <Doug interview with the tax collector <Gary Hamann) when he tells him he doesn't believe in income tax.

Gotta hand it to Mike, he's done a fine job every week Well ole mother nature seems to be losing control and being downright fickle as well. Temperature been going up and down like a grasshopper, from 92 degrees to 42 degrees and every where inbetween, sure hopes the ole temperature starts leveling off. From all signs it looks like it will and we can get down to enjoying the green grass on campus and Spring time in general! If any of you nature lovers been out in the country, Amos Pump tells us that north of town there are Indian relics that even the Smithsonian In8titution has investigated. The Indians lived their some 600 years ago on the once banks of the Missouri River. Since Amos P\Jmp tells us that the owner of the land

Professional Staff Reductions

, Because of re_duced propriations for instructional staffing positions and dollar amounts it is necessary to five instructional positions for the 1972-73 academic year. The Deans of the Schools were charged with the responsibility of reviewing the instructional program and recommending to the President where staff cuts could be made with the least damage to the instructional program.

The Deans of the Schools have :recommended that the position \presently occupied by Mr Silas Summers, associate professor of !English, who will retire as of the dose of the second term of the !1972 summer session, be lvacated. The position occupied by Mr Don Cattle, assistant professor of industrial arts, granted a leave of absence 'without pay for the 1972-73 .academic year, not be filled for the 1972-73 academic year.

The Deans of Schools have also recommended that the following professional staff members be terminated at the 'end of the 1971-72 academic year on or about May 26, 1972. All of ithese men are on probationary '.status and were advised, in writing, prior to December 15,

1971, that their status on the staff would be delayed until after passage of the budget bill.

Dr. Balwant Singh, associate professor of educational psychology

Mr Roger Salmela, instructor of history

Mr Harlan Krein, assistant professor of physical education.

The Board is advised the , above decisions and recommendations are the result of many hours of conferences and deliberations. Every possible alternative was discussed and The impact of these professional staff reductions seem to be the least damaging to the mission of the college. Other members of the Schools affecged and the Deans of the Schools will need to absorb some of the assignment of those terminated. The Deans of the Schools are willing to accept their responsibilities to make the internal adjustments necessary to provide an adequate program for students enrolled in the departments under their supervision.

• It is therefore respectfully recommended the employment of Dr. Singh, Mr Salmela and Mr Krein be terminated as of May 26, 1972.

The rap session with Senator Irving Wilste, Dr. James Todd, Mr Ward Reesman, and Mr J. Alan Cramer, was well attended by students and faculty Tuesday night, April 17. Since a smaller crowd was anticipated, the group had to be moved from the Fine Arts auditorium to the College Auditorium. The main topics of the session were, the.· future of a vocation-technical program at Peru State, the future of Peru State in general, how the next President of the College will be chosen, and what policy changes can be expected concerning dormitory regulations and student conduct rules.

The four members of the panel· each gave information and their opinions on the above points. They agreed that they have been promoting the idea of a two year vocational-technical program at Peru.

Although being a novice on the Board of Trustees of the Nebraska State Colleges, Mr Ward Reesman feels that educational institutions are loaded down with too much administration.

J. Allen Cramer, members of the board of Trustees, and Irving Wiltse, area representitive for the Nebraska Unicameral.

The discussion, first scheduled for the Fine Arts Audtiroium, had to be moved to the College Auditium by 7:20 due to an overflow crowd. The program began as the past two had, with orderly questions and answers. However, when Jinx Dettmann took the floor to voice her opposition over_ the release of three nfkmbers of the faculty, near pah,damonium broke out among the students,, showing their opposition to the releases. Dr. Todd, in reply, told the crowd of more than 300 they had raised t'he' budg-et for Peru State uy aoout $50,000, not decreased 1t as Dr. Goman had claimed, which resulted in the faculty cut of five.

Jim Pearson added to the tension when he asked how a school could operate to its fullest capacity with an

Dr. Todd commented that it is necessary to confront the issue recommendations of developing Peru State into a penal complex, developing it into a strictly teacher-«lucation program, or the present program.

Mr J. Alan Cramer, feels that the "product of Peru" is in great demand and also Peru might be aole to expand in associative arts.

At the last session of the legislature, there was discussion to find a way to use facilities at Peru and Chadron which would work with the technical system.

Various questions were raised as to where the increased budget money was being_ spent, why the money alloted to the three retiring instructors could not be used to keep the three instructors which have recently been released, arid who made these decisions. Many questions asked by students and faculty were felt to have been left unanswered.

There is a discrepancy as to whether Peru's 1972-1973 budget was increased or decreased. One topic which entered into this discussion was that of Dr. Neal S. Gomon's statement that Instructional funds were to be reduced and because of that he -

Daryl J. Obermeyer staffof 17 and a faculty of only 37.

Alarge show of discontent was received from the crowd when Dr. Todd said Peru's budget was increased by 7.4 percent while the budget at Chadron was increased by 12.9 percent, Kearney 11.l percent and Wayne 'received a 11.0 percent budget increase.

As the heat developed it was nearly impossible for narrator Bob Bowen to keep the meeting from breaking into a free-for-all.

As the large inconsistencies continued to develop between the claims of the administration, and the Board of Trustees over the release of the instructors, a

Dr. Todd agreed, to a reporters question after the meeting, that had anyone examined the situation, they would have seen that Dr. Gomon's statement was inaccurate in the light of our receiving a $3,000 increase in the Instructional funds.

Mr Ward Reesman said that he did not realize Dr: Gomon's statement was inaccurate until three days after acting on and accepting the propsal.

Mr Harlan Krein, one of the released faculty members, gave his views on the current He feels that there was premeditation in the selection of faculty cut back. He also requested each dean and selection committee member to personally write down what __ happened during the meeting to clarify two ·confilicting stories. Another meeting will be held to present questions to the President, Deans, and the selection committee members. It was suggested that the next rap session be held within two days, but a date will be announced after President Gomon returns to Peru.

It was expressed by the panel that they hoped they could be in attendence at this meeting.

Jinx Dettmann demanded another "rap session" be held immediately with the present par.el returning to Peru, and taking the stage with Dr. Goman and the Deans to clear up the gross inconsistancies presented, to which Dr. Shelly and Dr. Smith gave their support.

SGA Elections be May l

The SGA annual elections will' be held May 3 for President and Vice-President. Any student who wishes to be candidate for SGA office must present a member of SGA with a petition bearing the signatures and Social Security Numbers of 50 Peru State College students by April 28. The petitions should be worded as follows: We the undersigned do believe that <Name) should be allowed to be a candidate for (Office Desired). No student who is seeking an office of SGA can present more than one petition.

After attending the last rap session, there have come to my mind more questions which I feel need to be raised and answered.

1. Who can.obtain a well-rounded education in a particular field when there is but one instructor in the department? This is not meant to discredit the instructors in the art, home economics, or journalism departments, but even they must realize their weaknesses. What can be done with this·situation?

2. Why is the coach with the "winllingest" team not being retained next year? To his credits can be added the very successful High School Invitational Track Meet which he nurtured fJ,'om 250 to nearly 2,000 high school students this year. Also well to mention is a most successful wrestling team, including the placement of one member in the NAIA finals What other coach in the past few years can attest to such accomplishments? He led a strong defensive football team. Had the coach of the offensive team been half as successful, perhaps the records would have been better. Academically, he wrote and enacted the program for a recreational major. Not to be forgotten are the Community services he has rendered. Who is to take his place? I very much doubt if there is another person on the staff that could fulfill their own responsibilities and those of this coach. Is it fair to oust such a person because he has no tenure or are there other reasons? ·

3. How can enrollment climb in an institution where courses are being dropped? The inadequacies of some of the programs must be obvious even to prospective freshmen. The entire academic program must offer students more than just the essentials of accreditation. With an improved cirruiculum, perhaps enrollment would stay constant, if not increase.

4. Is tenure outdated in the modern school system? Should an instructor be employed by our institution beCause he has tenure and basically cannot be fired or should he be employed because of his contributions to education? Not even to be considered for termination were those people with tenure safely tucked away in their little cubby holes. The new professors are the vktimsyet even those who are not the newest were the ones to get the ax.

5. No system of rating teachers is employed by this school in which the students may voice thier opinions. who is better prepared to know who is a good teacher in the classroom - the student who attends classes or some other instructor or member of the college heirarchy who seldom if ever sees a teacher in -. motion? I would strongly recommend that a method of teacher evaluation be initiated at this institution in which students can voice their opinions concerning instructors. Something else which might be considered is a methods course for the instructors of this school. Professional semester students are exposed to effective teaching methods accepted throughout the nation. Yet classroom instructors rarely teach in up-Oated methods. H prospective teachers cannot see these new methods in practice, how can they go out and teach in the public schools when they have had no exposure to the methods other than through reading or movies?

6. There was much talk of splitting a salary between ad: ministrative and instructional budgets on the percentage of time each person spent in each area. I realize that this will consume part of the instructional budget left from retirements and cancellation of contracts, but what is being done with the rest of the administrative budger previously used to pay all of the salary of the administrator who will now teach part time?

7. Do we have an overabundance of administrators and, if so, where can cuts be made?

8. Why do inconsistencies appear between theBoard of Trustees and the administrative body of this college? Dr. Todd of the Board of Trustees said he did not know of any directive sent to the college not to consider tenured faculty for termination yet in talking with Dr. Smith, he assured me that a directive not to consider tenured persons was received. Another more obvious inconsistency was evident in the fact that the •college said that the cuts were bein_g made because of'li budget decrease, yet in reality there was an increase. Who can students believe?

9. I realize the Board of Trustees must rely upon the credibility of our administrators, but due to some of the things which have come to light, I question the credibility of the decisions reached and recommend the Board of Trustees do the same.

The happenings of the past week have upset the atmosphere of tranquility for which this campus is known. In a way this is very good. This is really the first time this year students have actively become involved in an issue of any kind. Yet, at the same time, many people have been hurt. There must be a better method for determining the future of this college. Therefore, I will raise a challenge to the students, faculty, administration, and Board of Trustees to find this method so that the happenings of this spring are not repeated in the future.

"Strawdogs" reviewed

By JERRY STEELE

Mathematician Mr Summers (Dustin Hoffman) and his flirtatious wife Amy (Susan George) find themselves 'face to face with a killer who seeks refuge in their British home in Sam Peckinpah's "Strawdogs".

Hoffman, who seeks noninvolvement, eventually turns himself into a super-charged Mighty Mouse getting involved. His over-friendly wife Amy, is the indirect cause of her husband's problems.

Hired hands are fired after the discovery of their housecat hung in a closet. Bitterly, the workmen leave, abandoning their unfinished roofing project. Amy's constant teasing takes its toll, however, when she is raped while her husband has been lured away on a hunting trip. : When a girl is found dead after ·a church social, the killer flees to the young couples home. Her father then decides to take the law into his own hands, while Summers, despite Amy's pleading, refuses to hand him over.

Under a heavy barrage oi window-smashing, Summers gradually grows stronger. Eventually the hoodlums finally enter the house, where our hero manages to kill the invaders. Ironically, through the course of the movie, one finds a slow but _gradual transition of per-

Jiotentially twenty-five million new voters. Almost one new vote for everyone Nixon received in 1968.

So the eighteen-year-old vote can make a difference in this year'e election. But in order to vote you must register.

Carly Simon is a pretty, young (26), rich (her father founded Simon and Schuster publishers), talented <writes her own songs and plays guitar and piano), woman who possesses a voice which sounds like Gracie Slick and Mary Travers (of late Peter, Paul, and Maryl put together.

In her second album, Anticipation 'Elektra-EKS-75016), her talent and voice stand out the most of the above characteristics.

The album begins with the hit · song, "Anticipation", a love song which tells that Carly doesn't believe in worrying about the future of her love life

("So I'll try and see into your eyes right now, and stay right here cause these are the good old days"). Next comes "A Legend In Your Own Time", which tells how mommy tells sonny boy what he's going to be when he grows up.

That's followed by my favorite, "The Girl You Think You See". In this song Carly tells how she'd be anything to please her man, ("I'll be insane, a mathematical brain, you Tarzan-me Jane, to please you"). Can you male chauvinist pigs dig it?

sonalities between Amy and her husband.

This becomes quite apparent in the final scene as Summers is still convinced that the murderer is innocent. As the pair en.ter Summers' car, the murderer confesses, "I don't know my way home," where our hero reelj.es, "that's okay, I don't know mY home either.'.' This might imply to the viewer his indiffetence whi.ch was so prevalent in Amy throughout thr flick.

Students organize for McGovern

An organizational meenng of Peru State College Students for McGovern was held Wednesday night at Jim Bragan's home in Peru. Gordon Werner and Bruce Bergqurst from Nebraska for McGovern helped organize the group. Daryl Obermeyer was selected as chairman, and Joevette Farber as co-chairman of the organization. Contacts for the organization are Carol McCabe of Morgan Hall for the campus and Jim Bragan (872-5495) for the community.

Saturday, April 22, the students as well as a large group of Nebraskans for McGovern are _taking part in a meter caravan

The second side begins with a song about the world coming to an end called "Share The End''. Some parts in it sound corny, but I'm sure you've heard worse. Carly then goes into three more love ballads and ends the album' with Kris Krist!Jfferson's Got To Have You".

Anticipation is a refreshing, new, different S(!und in today!s JlllUsic in which ·ten love songs< are done beautifully. ·

Carole King's last album, ;"Tapestry", won three Grammy Awards and has made at lasf count, sixteen million dollars. You might call that a tough act to follow.

Unfortunately, her new album, "Music" <Ode-SP-77013), will not do as well. But Carole get an A in effort.

· Carole combines the title song, "Music", with hit "Sweet Seasons" and adds a 1964 oldie called "Some Kind Of Wonderful", which she co-authored with Gerry Goffin in their era. During their time together King and Goffin wrote songs that the Beatles and Monkees used when they first started out. So much for trivia.

With some help from James Taylor, "Music" isn't a bad album, but not as good as "Tapestry".

NOSTALGIA '72

OPEN HOUSE

PALMERTON ART DISPLAY

MAC DAVIS

Mac Davis doesn't write songs - he "paints" them.

The songs he paints in the listener's mind are the soul and the atmosphere of life which the 29-year-old songwriter-singer out of Lubbock, Texas, by way of Atlanta, Ga., has experienced. His songs exhibit the rich dynamics of pop while reflecting the touch o(a country poet. And, he's blessed with a voice most songwriters can't match. Recognition as a songwriter has been slow in coming due to hispractical use of aliases. He is just now writing under his own name. Heretofore, to avoid confusion with another songwriter, Davis wrote under , the names of Scott Davis (his son) and Mac Scott Davis. "But now," he says, "I want to be known by my own name."

His musical track record is nothing less than phenomenal. Mac's recent songwriting credits include three hits for Elvis Presley ("Memories," "In The Ghetto," "Don't Cry Daddy"), a pair of hits for O.C. Smith ("Friend, Lover, Woman, Wife" and "Daddy's Little Man"), "Something's Burning" for Kenny Rogers and The First Edition and "Watching Scotty Grow" for Bobby Goldsboro. Mac's song "I Believe in Music" has been used for ntimerous TV shows and themes and has been recorded by many top artists. Among the singers who have reprised his songs are Sammy Davis, Glen Campbell, Andy Williams, Lou Rawls and The Lettermen.

In addition, Mac wrote special numbers for Presley's first television special, as well as for two of his motion picutres. He was also set by producer Hal Wallis to l'rP.lltP. fivP fnr

Paramount's "Norwood," starring Glen Campbell.

Mac has a strong feel for country-flavored music, which can be traced back to his boyhood days in Lubbock and on his uncle's west Texas ranch. He refers to it as "just growin" up with certain roots. Like many of today's vocalists, his first training came while singing in a church choir.

Yet Davis' development as a songwriter and performer didn't really begin until after he .had graduated from high school. While working during the day for the Georgia State Board of Probation and studying at night at Georgia State University in Atlanta, Mac somehow managed to find the time to form his own band. Hitting the fraternity trail from Alabama to the Carolinas to Florida, he was also writing songs and composing melodies by ear.

However, at the age of 20, Davis decided to give up "running gigs with my rock 'n' roll band around the South because I had this image of being a rock 'n' roff singer at the age of 35, trying to make a buck."

After· establishing branches from New Orleans to Miami, Davis was dispatched to Hollywood to head Metric Music, Liberty's music publishing operation. While at Metric, he wrote two songs that launched him into recognition within the industry: "Your're Good For Me," recorded by Lou Rawls, and Glen Campbell's "Within My Memory," _

That.was only in 1968, and Mac Davis has been ascending ever since. He has refined his craftsmanship as a songwriter to the nnint

artists and network programmers are clamoring for his material.

One of the factors contributing to his success is the inherent subtlety of his songs. Instead of bitter rhetoric or strong protest, the Mac Davis lyrics are "eyeopeners," as he calls them, exemplified by "In The Ghetto."

And now comes his first Columbia album, "Mac Davis: Song Painter," (in which he both creates and interprets the music), complete with three gold records, plus appearances on virtually every major TV show, nightclub engagements, and extensive college concert tours.

Now Davis no longer has to worry about getting his name confused with anyone else's. At 29, relatively middle-aged in the music business, he's up and over, a performer in his own write.

Trash of the Thirties, the hilarious comedy concert that has nearly thrilled all America, and certain parts of Canada, invades PSC for one mad-cap performance on Friday, April 28, at 8:00 p.m. College auditorium will be magically transformed into a fabulously gaudy movie and vaudeville palace of the 1930's for this spectacular high-camp stage show.

The show is a satirical extravaganza of the 1930's vaudeville shows - the kind that killed vaudeville. The live comedy production also features the very trashiest "B" flicks of the thirties, plus hilarious audience participation contests.

The evening's Master of Ceremonies will be Mr RaMonde LaRue, a slick· smoothie whose romantic voice, with just a hint of Castilian lisp, earned him the coveted "Best Used Car Salesman in Greater Toledo" Award in 1935. From the orchestra pit emanate the uptempo sounds of Simon Touche and his Syncopated Fools as well as the. odor of cheap muscatel. The stage design is a virtual orgy of old-time lighting effects left over from the night they raided Minsky's with seedylooking potted palms, and the spectacular giant "Silver Screen of Wonders."

Headlining the live stage show is "Miss Delores Del Vino, Spanish Songbird Supreme," who was born with a song on her ruby red lips and a perfect heartshaped beauty mole on her chin. Miss Del Vino will be singing and dancing her way into the hearts of all. as she is the "Gypsy

The titillating climax of the evening occurs when the entire audience joins in a rowdy madcap celebration of New Year's Eve 1934, complete with gala hats, horns, streamers, and other goodies distributed to the audience gratis (yes-free!) courtesy of the management.

Although Trash of the Thir· ties! was originally conceived as a half-time entertainment to be performed during a lunch break in the Scopes-Monkey Trail .it has risen above its original concept to become one of the top college comedy concerts in the land (however, the "Land" happens to be Armenia). Among the recent critical raves of the show have been

"It runs the gamut of entertainment from A to B!"

"On our campus, where the entertainment program is like an empty table - our kids gorged themselves on Trash, stuffed themselves with giggles, and gagged on their own tongues!"

"I'm not a drug addict, a sadomasochist, or a nitwit, but somehow I enjoyed this Trash of the Thirties! "

Movie "M*A*S*H"

Salute to Arbor Day

R. E. Wernsman

TREES help supply oxygen we need to breathe. Yearly each acre of young trees can produce enough oxygen to keep 18 people alive TREES help keep our air supply fresh by using up carbon dioxide that we exhale and that factories and engines emit. .l'REES provide food for birds and wild animals .TREES lower air temperatures by enlisting the sun's energy to evaporate water in the leaves .TREES slow down forceful winds TREES camouflage harsh scenery and unsightly city dumps, auto graveyards, and mine sites TREES leaves break the onslaught of pelting raindrops on the soil surface and give the soil a chance to soak up water AND TREES provide for America's economic growth and stability.

Lately man has shown concern for the future of Mother Earth. He has expressed concern that his own existence may be threatened by breathing noxious air, listening to earsplitting noise, ilrinking foul water, anviewing graceless landscapes.

In the midst of the environmental uproar, the TREE stands by - like a faithful watchdog - dispensing lifegiving benefits and lives onlike a silent lapdog - taken for granted, and yet one of man's best friends.

One of the first men to make a concentrated effort at planting trees, was Julius Sterling Morton. Born on April 22, 1823 J. Sterling Morton attended the Universtiy of Michigan in 1850. He received an honorary Bachelor of Arts degree from Union College in Schenectady, New York.

Agriculture became an important part of Morton's life in 1855 when the soil on his farm just west of 'Nebraska City was first broken: Consideration for his farm occupied much of his time. He began beautifying the prairie land by planting all types and varieties of fruit and forest trees, experimenting to find out

which varieties would do best in the soil and climate of Nebraska.

Morton's endeavors to spread agricultural information and promote agriculture advancement was even more outstanding in the service of pioneer agriculture than his work on his farm.

As an editor, Morton was a persistent advocate of an improved agriculture. In 1871, in the dedicatory address delivered .at the opening of the University of Nebraska, Morton told his audience, "One of the grandest of material labors i the reduction of untried lands to tillage."

On January 4 of the next year, Morton offered the following resolution to the State Board of Agriculture-:

Resolved, That Wednesday, the 10th day of April, 1872 be, and the same is hereby, especially set apart and· consecrated for tree planting in the State of· Nebraska, and the State Board of AAgriculture hereby name it Arbor Day; and to urge upon the people of the State the vital importance of tree planting, hereby offer a special premium of one hundred dollars to the agricultural society of that county in Nebnfska which shall, upon that day plant properly the largest numer of tree; and a farm library of twenty-five dollars' worth of books to that person who, on that ·day, shall plant properly, in Nebraska, the greatest number of trees.

The resolution was adopted unanimously. Arbor Day thus began as another effort to encourage tree planting in barren Nebraska.

After Morton's death in 1902, the Nebraska legislature changed the date of Arbor Day to his birthday on April 22, and made it a legal holiday.

And, that is why, during next week, the State of Nebraska, along with the nation, will celebrate the lOOth birthday of Nebraska's own creation, ARBOR DAY.

Dissatisfaction with Dorms expressed

Carol McCabe

Luvenia Sanders' disatisfaction with the restrictions of dorm life sound like all other typical PSC dorm complaints, "For quiet hours they yell like we're in an army concentration camp," and "This signing in and out at the desk is like something from the 18th century."

The comments sound familiar but Mrs is not a typical: run of the mill, dorm living student. Her first experience

PERU PEDAGOGIAN

Mrs Sanders has some very modern ideas about dorm life. "The hours and no-hours systems are not very fair in these modern times, this police type of supervision is not ' necessary. By giving students more freedom, they can accept responsibility and there would be no need for housemothers, floor counselors, would be enough."

Mrs Sanders also feels that the rwe ot segregating ·the boys from the girls' dorm is reinforcing a negative instead of a positive attitude. She also stated that people are afraid of antisocial kinds of activities, such as pre-marital sex, drinking, and drugs, concerning open visitation. The statistics from other schools that have open visitation show no higher rate of these things going on.

"The quiet hours are very unrealistic, there must be a better syste"' cc,mmented Mrs Sanders, "Youth should have as much fun as they can."

Mrs Sanders definitely fee1s that living in a youth oriented environment ·has given her a different outlook on her own children. "In a sense all rules that are set up for them are not always to their credit. They should be given a greater responsibility for their conduct without surveylance of adult supervision." She has two boys, ages 16 and 18.

Mrs Sanders will be sidered a senior at the end of. the summer. Her major is in Early Childhood Education, w!iich was brought to Peru because of the Head Start Program. She· will come back to Peru as a regular student in the fall and will graduate in June.

Other colleges Mrs Sanders has attended are Arkansas Baptist College in 1944, '45, and '47, UNO in 1951 and '52, the Head Start Program at Peru in the Spring and fall of 1968, Highland University, Highland, New Mexico in the summer of 1969, and last summer she attended the University of Utah in Salt ·Lake City, Utah, for a two week program.

The next try at dorm life for Mrs Sanders was in 1968 when she lived in the PSC complex while she attended a Head Start Program at Peru. Mrs Sanders retumed to Peru this semester, and has made a temporary home on the second floor of Morgan Hall.

Students hear Rabbi Weinstei

Judaism and Its Contemporary Literature· was the topic of a talk by Rabbi Barry L. Weinstein, on Wed., April 19 during convocation.

About forty students and faculty members attended the meeting sponsored by the Language Arts Department in connection with their enrichment program.

Rabbi Weinstein first gave a sketch of Jewish history so the audience would be better able to understand statements made in "Soul on Fire" by Elie Wiesel. "Souls on Fire" was the book most often referred to during the discussion.

It had been asked of Rabbi Weinstein if the book "The Source'', was a true account of Jewish existence. About this he

said, "no one book can give accurate portrayal of what like being Jewish."

When speaking about "So pn Fire," Rabbi Weinstein that while reading the book, 1things were obvious. One w that the Jewish bondage is theme continually encounte with Wiesel, and that Je · bondage is a theme continu encourtered with Wiesel, Jewish education is also Ii ;with the religion, saying that 'role of knowledge will always critical.

In concluding, Rabbi W stein said that the mess Weisel is giving through his is about the question, how do love God? and the response receives via the book, "to lo _man."

Sightseers Few ; Sights Numerous

The Hills of Peru have been written and talked about ever since the first settler set foot on the beautiful landscape. From that time there have been thousands of students who have also appreciated the countryside's picturesque scenery. This legendary landscape offers many a foothiker the opportunity to see the land first hand.

South of Peru, cutting across the town's dump road, are railroad tracks that will take anyone who is willing to walk a mile or two to cliffs along the ·Missouri. These cliffs look out over country side with initials carved in them from lovers back to 1889.

Margie and Johnny, 1889, probably were on a picnic one day when they came these cliffs and Johnny decided to leave their mark for history, which is what he did, for now the once sandstone is almost a hard. stone. But before the cliffs turned to stone Margie and Johnny were joined by hundreds pf other lovers up to about 1932.

country, but for those that did, and for those that do now, its a memorable occasion.

It gives anyone who sees the cliffs a real feeling of Peru's · long history, and to the many students who have come before to the campus of a Thousand Oaks to study and enrich their lives.

Anyone who still has the energy can see another, an. but lost sight, a hermit's house. This relic of the twentieth century is just beyond the cliffs, set back in the woods.

There is a path leading to it, off the railroad tracks, whfch has a stone bridge crossing a ' brook. The hermit comes to town once a year for supplies and the rest of the year lives in the hills overlooking the Missouri. There were rumors that the old man might shoot at anyone who approaches his house, and from those first stories no one has ever gone near the hermit$ · house. The best way to get. ·a Jook at this relic is at a distance.

i Then cars came and fewer i Stone Hill is another at-: ;students took those walks to the ' traction, the highest point in:

Nemaha County, which is a long climb from the 'tracks just beyond the hermit's house.

There have been some people who took in all three attractions in one afternoon, but it's a long walk.

Stone Hill overN>oks the Missouri River and across the river, Iowa, spans for as far as your eye can see.

Peru's country is a beautiful and often times an unappreciated rarity in today's world of pollution. It offers any sightseer all that he and or she could hope for. The next spring day, take a hike and see why people from all over the coµntry have written and talked so much about the Hill's of Peru.

Athletic Director and Head Football Coach Joe Pelisek, who nominated 20 athletes from Peru for the award commented, "This is a real fine honor for Ray and he is most deserving of it. I think that it is a great honor to have an athlete at Peru elected to the Hall of Fame· and the three (John Waters, Winkel, Froehlich) that made Honorable Mention."

Cheerleaders Reorganize

The cheerleaders have become an organization and have created their own constitution. The action came last week as the SGA approved of the cheerleaders constitution after many persona had discussed the issues and effects this move would have. A week early the student government had rejected the constitution because many members felt that Article IV sections five ans six were too strict.

The sections state such conditions for a cheerleader for her to remain one as there shall be no tardiness for practi e of performance, no excuse c m be given for not attendi1ig a practice or game, no gum chewing while cheering, no profane language, no smoking or drinking in uniform in public, no • unnecessary conversations with · the crowd or team, no leaving or sitting during the process of a game, and no cheerleader can have insufficient knowledge of the cheers.

The decision came after a spokesman for the cheerleaders stated that the group felt the restrictions not to be too severe and that if the cheerleaders became an organization then they would have their own budget and would o loger be funded through the SGA funds.

According to the constitution the cheerleader's purpose will be to school spitit, to develop a sense of sportsmanship among the students, and to build a genial relationship

·between and among all schools during all athletic meetings. Selections according to the new constitution will be determined by the active cheerleaders, faculty advisory committee, and. , sponsors. Originally the cheerleaders were selected by a vote of the students usually during convocation early in the spring.

Peditorial

By JOHN THOMAS

President Neal S. Gomon called a meeting of al1 faculty and administration Monday evening ApriJ 24. According to Dr. Max Smith, Vice-president of Academic. affairs the personnel went over current status and recommendations for the budget of 197273. Also discussed were procedures for treatment of the budget as.far.as.staff positions were concerned.

Dr. Smith reported the following to John Thomas, Editor of the Pedagogian: "In light of the fact that there is a difference in interpretation of the budget resources and possible uses for the coming year new options were evident which were not earlier apparent. Due to this fact, in order to make what we feel the best possible recommendation to the Board of Trustees, we are reopening the entire matter of staff appointments for the coming year. In order. to get the best possible input, we are seeking data from student evaluation of faculty, faculty self-evaluation, and administrative evaluation of faculty. (In the evaluation process administrators related to the academic program wil1 be evaluated also.) This information will be gathered within the near future. Once it is compiled, the dean's advisory council wil1 meet with the president and will make their decisions on recommendations, considering the above input. These recommendations will be made to the Board of Trustees, and will be subject to the board's approval. As it now stands, we will be recommending that there be 36 full-time faculty slots for the coming year rather than 33 as previously proposed."

"Once the recommendations are arrived at the dean's council and the president, they wil1 be announced to the students, faculty, and all ·on campus. It is anticipated that this announcement wil1 come during the week of May 8, the earliest date possible which will allow for the input from the various groups described above."

Letters to the Editor

Dear Editor:

At a time when some housemothers are being put down for beiHg anti-social and even being quoted by some as "not needed", there's a housemother at Delzell Hall who has given her occupation a good name.

In her first year as a housemother, Mrs Mary Kunkel has never been seen without a pleasant smile and friendly disposition. She has also brought this "belonging" atmosphere to the dorm. exnecially during Thanksgiving and Christmas as well as to the two Open House ceremonies.

To the guys at Delzell the energetic housemom has many times acted as cook, chauffeur, seamstress, nurse, secretary and hostess. It should be noted that on many of these occasions Mrs Kunkel was not obligated to perform these services, but instead volunteered for these roles.

I'm sure I speak for all the guys at Delzell when I say she has done a fantastic job as housemother and that we all appreciate all she has done for us.

Bombing Reaction

On March 23rd Senator Mike Gavel of Alaska introduced into the United States Senate a bill which would end the war in Indo China in 30 days, including an end to the air war. On the same day Congressman Drinan introduced the exact same le!!islation in the House. So far this bill has 17 co-sponsors in the Senate and 72 co-sponsors in the House.

This legislation has come under considerable focus since Presiderit Mixon has increased the bombing of North Vietnam.

According to the National Student Lobbv. in the past few weeks the U.S. has marshalled the most vast military armaaa since World War II. This action includes, according to NSL, a minimum of 16,350 men and 341 aircraft departing to Southeast Asia. another 9.850 men and 288 planes departing to an unknown destination in lndo China, and since April I, 21 attack ships have arrived in Vietnamese waters.

The direct result of this action has been for the National Strike Communication Center to organize local National Student Association members. According to the NSCC in San Francisco nearly 2,000 people supported a Vietnam Veteran Against the War take over of an Air Force Recruiters Station in the Old Federal Building in downtown San Francisco. At Almeido the Air Naval Station was shut down for three hours as 400 demonstr.ators blocked the gate entrance. In Raleigh, students and community members voted to mobilize for a march on the state capital. In Madison, 3000 to 4000 students marched to an ROTC building and smeared red paint on its walls to svmholize the bloodshed caused by the U.S. in Vietnam.

Uncle Lunk. •••••• Dept. 0£ Amplification

As Uncle Lunk attended a political rally recently he happened by an excessively vocal participate, Uncle Lunk thought he'd find out just what the young man's problem was. "What's the trouble," asked Uncle. They ought to Line' em up and shoot 'em." raved the young man. "Who?," asked the Uncle.

"The Blacks, Liberals, Jews, Reporters, Intellectuals, Radicals, Students, and Bleeding-Heart Politicians."

Dear Editor:

Those students working· to 'clean up the apparent misunderstandings within the school system would like to thank the Administration and faculty of PSC for their assistance. Their willingness to give answers to pertinent questions has proved enlightening and greatly appreciated. ·. A special thank you should be extended to Dr. (Max) Smith and Dr. (Neal S.) Gomon for their frankness and willingness to accept responsibility for what has occurred thus far.

Elects Officers

Officers for the Peru State Home Economics club for 197273 have been elected. Carol Warnke, Dunbar, will succeed Karen Schneider, Auburn, as president.

Other officers installed April 11 were: Mary Paap, presidentelect; Carole Obermeyer, vicepresident; Judy Buddecke, secretary and state representative to the college section of the Nebraska Home Economics Association; Mary Stuckenholtz, treasurer; Kathy Edwards, parliamentarian. ·

Following the meeting the club dined at Ulbrick's in Nebraska City.

These activities were organized well through these various organizations which were created to combat the U.S. involvement in Vietnam. One of th.e best known is the National Peace Coalition CNPCl. Thiswas tne group which organized the massive protests on Washington and San Francisco. This organization is fairly institutionalized with speakers that may be contacted through the organization ·to speak on campuses throughout the country for a fee. Stephanie Coontz is available to speak on 'Can there be Peace in 1972?"

Ruth Gage-Colby speaks on Nuclear Weapons and the IndoChina War.", Jerry Gordon speaks on "When. will the War End?", Fred Lovgren speaks on "Nixon's Peace Plan and the Student Movement.", and Katherine Sojourner on "The History of U.S. in S.E. Asia."

These organizations, along with their speakers, are becoming active again because .of Nixon's latest moves in Vietnam. Wednesdays speech by Mr Nixon was a major minant in the organizations plans for the future.

screamed the young man. "I meant," said Uncle Lunk, "who Ollllht to line 'em up and shoot 'em." With that the young man reverently withdrew. Ain't it a sign of the times Here's one Amos Pump happened by the other day that ought to be of interest to you. Entitled, "Our Forgetful Encyclopedists.

(From the Encyclopedia Britannica, 1968 Edition)"

Brought up in cosmopolitan Palermo · and with a wide knowledge of the Byzantine and the Muslim east, his (Frederick H's) intellectual attitude was scientific and rationalistic rather than skeptic and unorthodox. - Volume 9, page 825.

The emperor Frederick II, who was also king of Sicily, a brilliant man but a thorough skeptic and opportunist.Volume 6, page 832 Well this Saturday the Omaha World ·Herald noted that Philadelphia has set up 'a special intelligence squad created' to catch youths _who smear graffiti. Titus Pump

happened to be in the office when he saw the article on the desk. He came up with a brilliant idea. Station a janitor at each water mPt1>r rel!isterinl! a restroom Now when the meter fluxuates the janitor will be advised that someone has flushed the toilet. Immediately the janitor will rush into the bathroom and detain the person there till the walls can be checked for graffiti. Statistics show that most graffiti is done while the person is doing whatever they're supposed to be doing in a restroom. With all the graffiti that is going on in the schools' restrooms this plan could save plenty of money. Maybe if there were less writing on the walls we could save enough money to hire more teachers Uncle Lunk happened to hear an executive walking down the street the other day, say to his friend, who w;is limbing, "Don't be childish, man! Kicking Toyotas is no answer to our balance-of-trade gap." Well Spring week seemed to be a big success for all those who participated. You just got to hand it to the custodians. After they had to reseed the lawn last fall they have it really looking good for all of us to enjoy These minutes from a committee hearing in ·washington seem to be relevant to our campus lately. They began. "For Heaven's sak1> you'll get your appropriations, General! But first we have to go through our- deliberations, don't we?"

SGA Passes Open Dorm

An Open Dorm proposal has been proposed by the SGA after extensive polls were conducted to find out the students attitudes concerning the prop<isal. Last week the SGA plfssed the proposal unamously and it was referred to the Student Affairs Commission for further action. Until now the Student Affairs Commission has not taken any action on the proposal because of the revised SGA constitution taking most of their time.

The survey which was taken of all Peru State College students indicated clearly that the vast majority of the residents of tile dorimtories are in favor of the Open House Proposal. This Proposal states that the dormitory would be open on Sunday from 4 o'clock to ten o'clock, from 6 o'clock to 10 o'clock, Tuesday the dorms would be closed, on Wednesdays from 6 o'clock to 10 o'clock, on Thursday the dorms would be closed again, on Friday from 6 o'clock to 12 o'clock and on Saturday from 6 o'clock to 12

o'clock. The host or hostess would have to sign in his or her guest at the deskaild wou1a·a1sci have to. be responsible for the guest while in the dormitory. Any violation according to the proposal would be the authority of the respective Dorm Council.

One of the major advantages that is stated in the proposal is that an Open House Proposal would be a significant economic advantage because the students would be encouraged to remain on campus over the weekend and in fact may draw more students to live in the dorm.

The polls taken at each dorm indicated, at Clayburn-Mathews when asked, do you want open dorms, 100 per cent. answered ye-!,· The same results were received also from Delzell. At Morgan one-hundred .girls answered yes and eleven were against. At Palmer Davidson sixty-five answered yes and one said no. The next question, "Do you like this proposal? Delzell showed 100 per cent in favor of the policy. At Clayburn-

Mathews 97 .B per cent answered that they were in favor of the policy, at Morgan the SGA poll reporters said that 95 !fil'ls were

I for the proposal aild five· were against. At Davidson-Palmer 100 per cent of the girls were iri favor of the policy. The third· question was for suggestions. The only .suggestions that were, given was that a check list might be helpful and another said that the dorms should be open all day. Included in the proposal was in(ormation concerning the other colleges in Nebraska where Open House is now in effect. At Wayne, the proposal stated, visitation is allowed" Friday and Saturday afternoona and evenings until 10 o'clock. At Creighton University, they have a midnight curfew and no curfew on weekends, and according to the report, at Nebraska Wesleyan University the students are allowed 15 hours of co-eel visitation a week.

In Match Members Give Blood

April 19, the Peru State golf team met Creighton University and Dana College in a triangular meet in Omaha.

Creighton defeated the Bobcats, 141h-3lh, as many of the Peru gqlfers had trouble on the front nine at the Miracle Hills golf course. Dana and Peru tied in their match with 7% points apiece. Leading the pack in the meet was Guy Lammle with a 76. Right behind Guy was Dick Morrissey with a 77. Other scores for Peru were: Dave Lammie, 83, Roger Beard, 84, Kurt Kent, 87 and Butch Belt, 92.

Peru again met Creighton on April 21, at Nebraska City in a dual meet.

Creighton took this match by the score of 14-4.

Points are usually scored in this manner for the meets; If a player beats his opponent on the front nine, that is if his score is lower than his opponent's, he gets a point. If they tie, the is halved. The same method 1s used for determining who gets the point on the back nine. Then a point is awarded to the player who wins the overall match. There is then a possible three points to be won in each match· between a player and his opoonent.

· Leading the Bobcats in the Creighton dual was again Guy Lammie with a 74. Kurt Kent fired a 78, as he and Guy were the only ones to break 80. Other scores for Peru were: Dick Morrissey-81, Roger Beard-83, Dave Lammle-84 and Butch Belt-90.

PSEA Drops Outstanding

By Bob Wernsman

The outstanding teacher award, annually sponsored by · the Peru Student Education Association, will not be presented for the 1971-72 academic year. When asked by a reporter, Pat Castle explaine<;I the dropping of the award.

In the past, he said, the election was open only to members of P. S. E. A., which often resulted in only 75-80 students participating and often not resulting in an adequate campus-wide feeling.

It had been decided by the members of P. S. E. A. that the election for outstanding teacher would be handled in a different manner than elections in previous years.

Besides opening the election to all students at Peru State, the ballot included a list of all instructors on campus, for students to notate all teachers they had had, and 14 points of evaluation thought to be a good criteria by which to judge teachers.

By making these changes, the members felt that holding the elections could serve more of a purpose than simply a

T.eacher Award

popularity contest.

They felt that if the teachers could learn why the top five had been selected, it would be of greater value. Because of this, they devised the 13 points of criteria.

When the ballots were devised, it was felt that the winner should be decided on a percentage scale, thus the listing of all the teachers a student has had.

The open election system resulted in a total of· 410 students participating in the election.

After tabulating the election results, P. S. E. dicovered a number of inequeties within the system they had set up.

As outlined by Pat Castle, some of the rriajor inquities of the voting system were:

Editors Named For 72-73

Editors for the 1972-73 year have been announced by Mr Everett Browning, student publications director. They are Bob Wernsman, Editor of the Pedagogian and Debbie Barton Editor of the Peruvian.

Castle stated that those instructors responding favored dropping the election it the inquities could not be removed. in the light of the problems arising, P. S. E. A. chose to acknowledge tbeir advice, and cancelled this year's election, rather than reveal results which were not felt to be just. · ·

When asked what could be done for next year, Mr Castle replied, "if should be started sooner and P. S. E. A. is considering the possibility of .organizing a committee solely to conduct the election, possibly prior to the second semester. I also think any students and

Peditorial

As the year rapidly draws to a close, I would like to take this opportunity to review the past year. Without a doubt, the most outstanding event of this year has been the interest the students have shown in the future of their college. Even though it only started during the last 2 or 3 months of this year, a lot has been done to make people take a good look at Peru State College and its student body. A more positive atmosphere is coming, as far as our school is concerned. ·

The Golden Anniversary of Peru State's Homecoming was a big success. This shows the great amount ot work and interest people have in this school. This must continue. I hope that the student body doesn't come back after the summer and with an attitude of "I don't care anymore." If we are really serious about the results of the rap sessions, we must continue our efforts on into next year, without a let-up.

All students who are interested in Peru's future will be working on it this summer by recruiting new fall semester students. The students of this college are the best recruiters possible. If you really want to help, be at the meeting in the College Auditorium during Convo on May 10. Gary Hoeman will talk to students about recruiting students for nextfall. So if you are really interested in the future of PSC, be there. ·

In closing, I would like to say that I have enjoyed being Editor of the Pedagogian very much, and I would like to thank everyone who helped with the paper. I also take this opportunity to wish Bob Wernsman, next years editor, the very best of luck.

When the Beatles broke UP-' three years ago, I looked at the situation as an advantage. My theory was that now they could do their own thing without any hassle from the others.

If John wanted to record a love song for Yoko there would be bad vibes from the others. what I really looked forward after the split was Paul doin more great love songs such as his· "And I Love Her" "Mlchelle," "Yesterday", and "Hey Jude" to name only a fe he did mostly himself as a Beatie.

In his first solo album called simply "McCartney," in which he played all the instruments himself, a song called "Maybe I'm Amazed" was the only o on the album which sounded lik the McCartney of old.

It was noted in the Omaha World Herald last weekend, that there would not be a University of Nebraska yearbook following the publication for this year.

Often, a person is. subjected to derogatory statements about yearbooks. "It's too oldfashioned." "It's too expensive." "It's too much work."

Sales for the U. of N. yearbook this year have reached 1, 700 less than a tenth of the entire student population at the University.

The article in the Omaha paper quoted this year's editor as saying "mosf students don't have the.old spirit, that feeling yearbooks used to appeal to."

It is rather refreshing then, to realize that although the Peruvian has no budget accorded by the administration through the Board of Trustees we are able, through the work of the students, to ha\Tf.lln annual again this year, entirely student supported.

I believe it is a commendation to those students willing to spend so much of their time to sell

Letters to the Editor

Dear Editor -

enough yearbooks to assure Peru of the 1972 edition of the yearbook.

While many potions are being taken on the campus, although possibly adverse to the feelings of the studen.ts, it is· reassuring to note that the students are capable of completing positive undertakings, the Peruvian r Jing an ideal example.

Perhaps the students of P. S. C. have what it takes, that spirit, that feeling, and thus may realize that they have the ability and the power to make Peru exactly what they feel it should be.

Nebraska Primary on May 9

By DARYL J. OBERMEYER

The field of candidates running for the Democratic nomination is slowly narrowing as it nears the Nebraska primary on May , 9. The Nebraska ballot will include eleven names, however there are only three active candidates that have much hope of winning the nomination.

away victory in Massach\Jsetts, which won him all 102 delegates.

The Republican side of the ballot consists of very little competition. It appears that President Richard M. Nixon will win his parties nomination.

Next Tuesday the voters of Nebraska will voice their opinions at the ballot box. Current polls now show that McGovern and Humphrey are running neck in neck for first place in Nebraska. Nixon has no apparent worry about winning the - Republican primary in Nebraska.

In his second album, "Ram" o.nly a Yellow Submarine type ·song called "Un.de Albert Admiral Halsey" made the top; !he album wasn't band, in fact; it's his best album, but definitely not his best work.

In his new album "Wings Wild Life" (Apple SW-3386), Mc Cartney continues to dish o "good time music" with nothing you could call heavy being included.

One of the songs on "Wings" is·'. "Bip Bop" which was played on the radio for a while. During the · whole song a catchy tune is the background to the repetition of·· the name of the song.

Then comes an oldie called "Love Is Strange" which was done a while back by a couple called Peaches and Herb. You all must remember Peaches and Herb.

Marge Jelinek has been named PSC's candidate for Miss Nebraskaland. Marge is a freshman from Weston, Nebraska. She will compete for the title June 18-19 in North Platte, Nebraska.

Mrs Louise Kregel, advisor of Peru State Home Economics Club, and six members of the Club attended State Home Economics Convention in Omaha Friday and Saturday, April 28 and 29. Members attending included: Karen Schneider, Carol Warnke, Mary Paap, Judy Buddecke, Susan Hanley and Vicki Jacobitz. Judy Buddecke was elected to the office of State College Club Vice Humphrey is attempting his President. She will be in charge third time to win his party's nod. of the Workshop to be held in Several party leaders claim the Peru this Fall. dropping out of Senator Henry _ Jackson of Washington, and Senator Edmund Muskey of Maine from active campaigning may help Humphreys chances.

Everyman, directed by Bart Neri, and The Intruder, directed by Julee Tillman, were presented Wednesday, April 26. These two plays were done in the round.

The title song "Wild Life", a song about animals rights ends the first side. The only decent song on the second side is "I Am· Your Singer", which is a lorre ballad. McCartney ends the. album with "Dear Friend" which is a reply fo ·John Lennon's "How Do You Sleep At Night," as their war with songs continues.

After three albums McCartney has only one heavy song to his credit which is "Maybe I'm Amazed". This makes one want to ask several questions like; Where are all the heavy sounds which he has the potential to· write as proven as a Beatie? At the age of only 29 has Paul McCartney gone senile? Or was it just John and the other Beatles now-absent, who influenced him to write great songs? No matter what the answers are it is apparent that Paul McCartney is not at his best.

Alabama Governor has made a good showing.

Results of Drug

Survey Released

The preliminary figures of the drug usage survey filled out by students during the January<registration are out and as could be expected the use of beer and liquor head the list. ·

The use of liquor according to. the survey; is about 4% times higher than the smoking of marijuana. The survey also _

shows that 38.6 per cent of the students taking the survey · smoke cigarettes.

The use of heroin and LSD by Peru students is very low as only .8 per cent use·heroin and 3.7 per cent use LSD. The use of barbituates and amphetamines is a little higher as the survey shows that 4. 7 per cent of the students

use barbitlll'ates and 7.7per cent use amphetamines.

Mr Gary L. Martin, from the University of Nebraska who compiled these results has stated that Peru's totals are a bit lower than the University's where it's figures are much less than the national averages.

It should be noted that 672 students filled out the questionnaires at registration. Another important statistic is the 58 percent of those whQ, filled out the questionnaires were male while 41 percent were female. The totals did not reach 100 percent because of rounding or lack of response.

Vision 17 Supports PSC

Mr. A. 0. Gigstad, Mayor of Nebraska City and Head of Vision 17 said he believes that people of Nebraska City were upset when they were informed that Peru might possibly have a cut in faculty.

Because of their feelings, Mayor Gigstad and a group of people representing Nebraska City were on the Peru State campus Friday, April 28, to learn the facts first hand from the administration.

Gigstad told a reporter that after speaking to Dr. Smith and others in the administration, "we are happy to learn that the faculty and administration are taking a positive approach to upgrade the college and face the enrollment problems at Peru State College."

"The group got the feeling," Gigstad said, "the next rap session to be attended by the administration, deans of the schools and board members, would be a positive rather than
